Juliet says “Hey, it’s Romeo!You nearly give me a heart attack.”He’s underneath the window,She’s singin’ “‘Hey La, My Boyfriend’s Back.’Shouldn’t come around here, singin’ up at people like that.And anyway, what ya gonna do about it?”
Click-to-enlarge image available from here (last View All Sizes choice).That has one title of the painting. It is discussed here using the second title, with a shorter discussion here, under the first title. The National Gallery of Art, where it resides (another discussion of the painting), now uses the second title, though it used the first from 1916-1984. That link has repro. all through it, so I’m not sure if the actual painting is there, or a reproduction, or it lends out a reproduction for other exhibits. Pages 6 & 7 of this are an unknown-to-me (art) teacher’s notes about the painting, with an earlier copy of the NGA’s description on page 1.So far, only work by this artist to appear in Mr. Melcher’s blog.
