Obviously Cox was a multi-talented guy get the Swope up and running and manage to produce such refreshing and visionary work in his own studio. There is a stunning oil painting hanging in the Smithsonian American Art Museum in Washington of a sun breaking through a dust cloud over a very similar landscape. It must be a '30's or '40's piece. Now I'm going to have to go back to SAAM and see if it might not be by our friend Cox. Cox’s White Cloud is a terrific painting.
