Tepotzlan, Mexico; Gouache, 1953, twelve years old






perhaps a version of an earlier picture. I distinctly recall seated beside my father, Georoge Rosen, on a balcony overlooking the incredible vista of the town and the distant landscape. I have my father's watercolor and also another version--weaker--of this view. Could I have painted this at 12? Possibly. If not, then perhpas a year or so later.
More to write about this town and Mexico in 1953.

For T. B.
