California Muralist Ray Boynton and Classical Allusions in the Mills College Music Hall Frescos

Abstract: 

Painting on wet plaster, Ray S. Boynton created six large panels alluding to "joy and sorrow" in the music hall. The recently restored panels juxtapose Dante, Greek mythology and the California landscape. So the painter interprets the poet.
