"Live in Fear" and "Smiling Mushroom"
| Red painted wooden Japanese torii gate, and a side view of a sculptural arch of a standing old man in Sid Boyum's backyard. The man, with a prodigious nose, big blue eyes, faded ruddy complexion, has a gray toga, and is resting his chin and moustache on an brown painted arch inscribed with the text: "Live In Fear." The "Smiling Mushroom" sculpture is located at the base of the arch. A potted plant is hanging from one of the torii's brackets. |
