About this artwork

MS. Found Under a Serviette In a Lovely Home

4.5×4.75 in

Ink on Paper

Unsigned Final Study

Written by Ogden Nash and Illustrated by Maurice Sendak

Excerpt:

Dear Cousin Nancy:
You probably never heard of me or Cousin Beauregard
or Cousin Yancey,
But since you’re claiming kin all the way across the
ocean, we figure you must be at lease partwise
Southern,
o we consider you not only our kith and kin but also
our kithin’ couthern.
I want to tell you, when Cousin Emmy Lou showed us
your piece it stopped the conversation flat,
Because I had twenty dollars I wanted to talk about, and
Cousin Beauregard had ten dollars he wanted to
talk about, and Cousin Yancey didn’t have any
dollars at all, and he wanted to talk about that. . .
