  1. Oh great froggwellian, I have a question... are the painting titles listed all in the Armory show? This will help in my decision making process.

  2. Yes, the painting titles are straight from the catalog or to be completely accurate: "1913 New York Catalogue of the International Exhibition of Modern Art." And FYI, the images are only from works shown in the exhibition. Also, once you decide please let The Froggwellian know so your choice can be posted--wouldn't want to have 2 forgeries of the same painting!
