This collage follows Phillips from London to Jamaica to Miami Beach. A hand addressed label in the upper right corner from Ruth and Marvin Sackner to Tom Phillips has the following written message: "25th Nov 1986 arrives the Sackner catalogue herein after known as the whopper with a list of their holdings & nominally all the important Dante material." A record of Phillips' diary entries are written on the left side of the collage dating from November,1986 to March 1987. An invitation to an exhibition of Phillips' graphic works at the National Gallery of Jamaica is collaged at the top center. Phillips includes a portion from the Dante piece by Paul Laffoley hanging in the Sackner Archive. l -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.

The Sackner Archive lent the painted triptych, "The Divine Comedy" to the first retrospective exhibition of Laffoley's paintings. This work is illustrated in the fold out pages and mentioned in the essay of Jeanne Marie Wasilik. J.W. Mahoney discussed the photographically reproduced serigraph, "The Alchemy of Breathing." The original drawing of this work was commissioned for the '"Beauty of Breathing" exhibition and is held by the Sackner Archive. Paul Laffoley contributed an insightful autobiographical essay in which he writes about his current project on the Pantheon. He also made collages expressly for illustrating this catalogue. Each of the paintings reproduced in the catalogue has an in depth comment by the Loffoley. The exhibition was curated by Elizabeth Ferrer, Director of the Austin Museum of Art. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
