Five Views of a Sycamore

Oil & Gold Leaf Installed on Walnut

Five Panels Each 30” x 60”

1965

Destroyed in Majestic Hotel Fire of 2014

This mural was commissioned by the Majestic Hotel in Hot Springs, AR in 1965. After visiting the hotel to assess the mural site, Marr was inspired by a Sycamore tree on his way home. Using Sycamores on the Hendrix campus, he constructed a small scale model to be presented to the hotel owner for approval. After a 1980's or 1990's renovation, the mural was removed. The family later learned the pieces perished during the Majestic fire of 2014.
