Three other copies are attested, one of which is now displayed in the National Gallery of Art, Washington.

Famous quotes containing the word images:
“Cultural expectations shade and color the images that parents- to-be form. The baby product ads, showing a woman serenely holding her child, looking blissfully and mysteriously contented, or the television parents, wisely and humorously solving problems, influence parents-to-be.”
—Ellen Galinsky (20th century)
“Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven images of the Lord, thy God, nor of men who are his creatures.”
—Max Frisch (1911–1991)
“What images are these
That turn dull-eyed away,
Or shift Time’s filthy load,
Straighten aged knees,
Hesitate or stay?
What heads shake or nod?”
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
