The second original cartoon by the late James Stevenson (1929-2017) shown at the Westport Historical Society on April 25, 2014 during the exhibition "Cover Story: The New Yorker in Westport" presents a scene of uncertain domestic tranquility. Stevenson has placed the kitchen window in the center of the composition, allowing the couple to be backlit from opposite sides.

I own an original James Stevenson. “I think you have the most Chekhovian household in Southampton” (or words to that effect). I’d like to send you a picture of it via email. AndrewZerman@Gmail.com. Hope to hear from you.
