Notes

On the obverse of this panel is [Numbers: Design for University of Otago Library mural], the design based on McCahon's use of numbers which was not chosen as the basis of the final commission, Waterfall theme & variations. McCahon made the waterfall design on the reverse at the insistence of Dunedin-based friends who knew of the request for designs from the Registrar of the University of Otago.
