Created to accompany the 13th installment of the serialized novel” Silver Knees” in the April 4th 1931 issue of Liberty Magazine, this oil on canvas painting features a romanticized depiction of love during the Mexican-American war. In this lush scene, Gitana, a gypsy dancer, enjoys an afternoon serenade as her star crossed lover, an American war hero, looks on quietly.
