Abstract

For the past year, conservators have been painstakingly exposing the huge mural (pictured), which was painted onto the proscenium arch of the Little Theatre in Margery Reed Hall in 1929, then painted over with thick, dark paint in 1931. The artist, John Edward Thompson, considered the act ''vandalism.''.
