A painting in muted greys, yellows, blues and whites of a room in a Paris apartment. A fireplace on the right with a vase of flowers and a mirror, various pieces of furniture and in the background on the left a set of tall windows with open white curtains.

Yes! As a subscriber, I find the NYer's archives maddening. It's great that they exist, but the struggle to get to old stories is exhausting.

This stayed with me: a book (2002) by his friend Alison Lurie (now a spirit herself).

I remember him, but didn't know his story (too preoccupied with other things in '68 to notice his death); from Iowa to Disney to the Factory...what a trajectory.

A painting in muted colours (blue, mauve, brown, ochre & yellow) of daffodils in a glass vase on a table with a patterned rug beneath it. There are faint, ghostly double images of the table, vase and other objects on it (books?) to the right.
