We would like to thank Andrew Thompson and Dr. Henry Adams for their assistance with cataloguing this work.
In 1937, Thomas Hart Benton was commissioned by Life magazine to paint a mural depicting a behind-the-scenes view of the Hollywood movie industry (Hollywood, 1937-38, Nelson-Atkins Museum, Kansas City, Missouri). In preparation for the project, the artist visited California for a month, sketching and drawing scenes on studio lots, particularly at 20th Century Fox.
