On September 11 every year, my thoughts turn to the shocking 2001 sights of airplanes crashing into the twin towers.
My thoughts also return to the wonderful 18 foot long allegorical painting, Cycle of Terror and Tragedy, by Graydon Parrish at the New Britain Museum of American Art. The anguished twins are perfect images of the terror our nation experienced on September 11, 2001.
I visit the painting whenever I am at NBMAA if it is being exhibited. Parrish returned to the museum on September 11, 2014, to discuss his painting. I attended his lecture. This photo is from that lecture.
