Donated by Susan Tompkins-Hunt, who understands the painting to have been originally sold by a Haitian street vendor (possibly the artist)
to a resort owner in Sosua, Dominican Republic for the equivalent of $22.13 + a rum and coke. It was subsequently given as a gift to the owner of a tavern in Boston, MA, where it was displayed, coveted, and after extensive negotiations, purchased by Ms. Tompkins-Hunt. Aware that most of her friends and relatives were emotionally upset seeing A L'Interieur De L'oeuf on display in her home, she realized that MOBA is the proper repository for such a powerfully vexing work.
