Image description

Philip Guston casts himself as the painter, with bloodshot eyes and a blue head, staring into the spectacled eyes of composer Martin Feldman (1934-82), who holds a cigarette near his cheek. Nearby, sculptor Raoul Hague (1904-93) flogs a jumble of shoes. And the poet's brow rising over the distant horizon belongs to Musa Guston, the painter's wife.
