29" x 28" (74 x 71

The title of this painting, Like
An Old, Pointed Fish, is taken from
Marcel Proust's enduring masterpiece, In Search of Lost Time
Penguin Classics DeluxeEdition,
volume 4, p. 402
"...looked like old, pointed fish,
imbricated with scales, moss-covered and ruddy, which,
without appearing to move,
were rising in a
blue, transparent water."
