Label TextClark's diploma work was accepted by the Academy under the title October Skies. Because there is no indication in Academy records that this work was exchanged, and because within the year the published inventory of the collection lists Clark's painting under the present title, it must be assumed that the painting at hand is the one the Academy accepted and that the title change was Clark's decision or correction.
