Story / Additional InfoOn a subsequent trip to Maui, we spoke to Robert Nelson at a gallery showing. When we told Mr. Nelson that we had one of his "Two World" prints, he became excited. He said, "you actually have one of those prints". He went on to say that fire in his studio had destroyed nearly the whole edition. Nelson's Studios confirmed the report, and the value indicated scarcity of this image in a canvas graphic form.
