Summary
Oil painting on board, Mythological Scene (possibly an Allegory of Jealousy) by Alan Francis Clutton-Brock (1904-1976). A semi-naked young man and woman - looking more like escapees from Bloomsbury than dwellers in Arcady - are seated on a knoll. The young man holds up a mirror to the young woman, who turns away, apparently to throw a stone at an approaching wolf. In the distance, behind the wolf, a nude woman stands beside a tree.
