BiographyCopied from correspondance between GKA and organizers of Blumenschein exhibition (Albuquerque Museum):; ; "In the catalogue, at the beginning of the exhibition checklist, will be this paragraph:; NOTE: Research for this book found that Ernest Blumenschein had a penchant to repaint, retitle, and alter his paintings. This has resulted in adjustments to titles and dates based on this scholarship. This idiosyncrasy of Blumenschein's is reflected in the checklist: the earlier titles given to paintings the artist later reworked and retitled are shown in parentheses, the title each work is now known by is the last title that Blumenschein gave it. Dates are listed showing the date when the artist first completed the canvas through the last known repainting."; ; The catalogue title and date entry will read: The Canyon (originally Strength of the Earth, 1944,crossreferenced as Rio Grande Ca±on at Taos), reworked 1949
