My friend was dumpster diving, looking for art supplies and such. Brown came out carrying another load of stuff to throw away. They met and got to talking. Brown told him he could take whatever he wanted as long as he didn't make a mess. The painting was part of the load Brown just brought out. This took place sometime in the early 1990s. Condition. This painting has multiple slashes in the canvas. Surface dirt, accretions, scratches overall.
