Painting, Brushed Ink and Pencil on Paper, IMPRESSIONS FROM THE HOME TV SET

Ink and Colored Pencil on Paper. Impressions from the "Home TV Set," 21 April 1972. A page from a spiral-bound sketchbook. Eight rectangles in the top half of the page portray scenes of Apollo 16 extravehicular activity (EVA) as seen on television. The rectangles are different sizes but are arranged in roughly three columns and three rows. The top left scene rectangle is dark purple with a faint blue figure in the center and a bright white figure in the lower right. The next rectangle to the right is dark blue-green and depicts the earth in the upper right. The rectangle on the far right clearly shows two astronauts and the American flag between them. On the middle row the left rectangle is reddish-purple and shows a bright white, angular figure, presumably an astronaut. To the right is a smaller rectangle showing a corner of red and white stripes and a square that says "United States." The next small rectangle to the right depicts the footprint on the surface of the moon. The left rectangle on the bottom row is reddish-purple and has the vague form of an astronaut. The last rectangle on the right includes two astronauts, the one on the right holding a golf club. The text in the lower right corner reads: "Impressions From the "Home TV Set" Apollo 16 EVA I Young & Duke 21 April 72."
