White Flag

So my quick visit to the Artchive (two down) ended up - as usual - being longer than just a "quick visit"... and I stopped in for a look at their Jasper Johns collection. There's something about his White Flag that I really like...



Maybe it's the disconnect - in my eyes, at least - between the ideas of waving the Stars 'n Stripes of strength and waving the white flag of surrender. Especially on such a broad canvas.
