[Leica] Folk Art Flag in Monroeville

[Douglas Barry]

It probably reflects the struggle for symmetry on ten slats pre-painted 
and put together rather than an echo of a momentary political statement.
I'm surprised the maker didn't edge that table a little to the right as 
he/she got the painting reasonably aligned with the background wall 
laths. Then again maybe it was a deliberate comment.
