Non-Sectarian Crucifixion / levy, d.a.., 1964
Image is an oil paint semi-realistic sketch of an individual held on a crucifix. The major colors are browns on a white primed background. Geoffrey Cook who owned the painting wrote to the Sackners that "although d.a. was most secular, he was deeply aware of his Jewishness: 'I am a levy of the levites,' and did not wish to have these paintings seen totally in a Christian historical context. I believe, though, levy was drawn to the suffering represented in our own culture by the icon of the cruxifixion because of the suffering he actually felt in his own life. I don't think that the markings below to the right have a significance, I believe they can be explained by the action painting technique." -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.

Notes On The Suicide Of America [as modified from writings of] Hasan Sabbah II, 1966
Wikipedia: Hasan al-Sabbah حسن الصباح was an Iranian missionary and founder of Nizari Ismai'li who converted a community in the late 11th century in the heart of the Alborz Mountains of northern Persia. He later seized a mountain fortress called Alamut and used it as the headquarters for a decentralized Persian insurrection against the dominant Seljuk Turks. He founded a group of fedayeen whose members are often referred to as the Hashshashin, or "Assassins". -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
