Thank you Ben Griffin for a fascinating analysis of "San Fransisco Swimming Bath." I observe that the Evans and Twain figures are drawn in a slightly more detailed caricature than the others. They are not casting shadows (unlike all the other figures in the foreground), Also, Evans' left pant leg reveals some of the background floor texture. So I wonder if Jump could have added the two figures later? That might resolve the "one apparent obstacle to finding Mark Twain in Jump's picture is Evan's own claim that Twain is not in it" and Ben's observation that "It is odd that Evans omits to mention that he himself has the honor of being caricatured in the "Bath." - Alain Alain Munkittrick, Associate MUNKITTRICK ASSOCIATES, LLC Architecture, Interior Design and Space Planning PO Box 167 Cobalt, CT 06414 Tel: 860.342.4333 Street Delivery: 235 Middle Haddam Road Portland, CT 06480 This e-mail communication and any attachments may contain confidential and privileged information and is for use by the designated addressee(s) named above only.
