This key work caused "something of a sensation" at the 1958 Carnegie Invitational. Cohen combined deliberately clumsy, pictographic painting with collage, pasting in a round mirror and a hank of Eve's hair. Mirrors, he explains, "are the supreme illusion; they mock both the viewer and the painting."[1]
It has been owned by the Alan Gallery, Carnegie Institute Department of Fine Arts, San Francisco Museum of Art, and Richard L. Feigen Gallery before its storage.
