Schubert's Unfinished Fifth

Hypoxic Music aficionados have long speculated on the creative inspiration behind this rarely performed piece. Fortunately, the recent acquisition of this equally rare portrait by Gelegh at the Museum of Depressionist Art casts light not only on the origins of the composer's "Missa Interruptus," but the ultimate disposition of the work itself.

I especially love the detailed rendering of the Wild Turkey. Very hard to pull off in the watercolor-on-tin medium that Gelegh - perhaps alone in the world - was so at home with.
