   Click-to-enlarge image can be found here, or at Mr. Melcher’s blog entry.
   
   The Fountain of Youth (link shows Wikipedia page) is shown with a different coloration image in a current-location (painting is at the 1:26 mark of the embedded video there) page. Other coloration images, by one of its partners can be found here (click an image for interactive enlargement, click the script/Datenblatt anziegen icon to return, Chrome users can translate the page).
   
   Another coloration image can be found here, along with a description, and descriptions of detail images here, here, here, here, here, and here (click image at each to enlarge). Another different coloration image can be found here; but there are many different coloration and detail images available online. The artist‘s Wikipedia page and collection (many more under Subcategories at each level).
   
   Second of the 4 works by this artist, that have, so far, appeared in Mr. Melcher’s blog, to also appear here.

   Barbi Benton lived with Hefner from 1969 to 1976.

   @mabrndt

   Is there any arcane art knowledge that you are not across?
   BTW, thanks for the e-Card, very sweet.

   To me that looks like a tail gate party on an El Camino in the upper right hand corner.

   Every day I pretty much start from scratch, usually haven’t seen the painting before. I don’t really have any prior art knowledge, arcane or otherwise.

    For a minute there I thought this was a Hieronymous Bosch…but once I enlarged it (and boy I had to) it wasn’t.

    As I may say from time to time, it is deeply appreciated. I would like a bit more time to review the links you always set up.
