One boy commented (presumably when the picture arrived at the school that bought it), "We recently had delivered to the School a number of original paintings by professional artists. My favourite one is called 'The Return', and it was painted by a fellow called Richard Eurich. I think he has worked tremendously hard for he has filled in every possible detail."
