Apollo 11: A Giant Leap for Mankind

Oil on Linen

24X 30 inch

When Neil Armstrong landed on the moon as the first human being there, he said "This is a small step for me, but a giant leap for mankind."  I then gave it a new meaning from another angle: "It's is an easy step to be grateful, but a giant leap for mankind (if we all do it)"  The artwork is also overlaying the 1969 space scene onto Jean-Francois Millet's "L'Angelus" circa 1859.
