Wait... that is a covered box? I thought it was the weird black obelisk thing from 2001 A Space Odyssey...thus the apes, and the little girl was an allegory for the civilization of mankind and how enshrouded it is in the past being carried by currents of fate.

But you know I think your explanation is much simpler. :wink:

Who said anything about a box? :wink:

I once took a screenwriting class at UM. I was interested in writing but the art always dominated my time. Maybe I should outline a story for this painting and see what happens....then maybe all these questions would be answered. I'm reading Edgar Rice Burroughs' John Carter series now....really enjoying it...maybe a very pulpy Tiki/Chimp saga...
