DESCRIPTION

Publisher: Universal Limited Art Editions, New York



This work is said to have originated from a dream of "a man who had lost his legs on the New York subway, riding a cart and selling pencils." In the upper right, an upside-down chair and a single leg are visible. Jones left the following note about this work: "The Watchman falls into the 'trap' of looking… the 'Spy' is designed to escape notice."
