April 10, 1999
Dear Charles and Rhoda,
Circle Triangle
granddaughter Ellie, a wonderful athlete, loves to exercise with elastic bands. Her brother's cat, "phantom" a wild breed, always interferes and pushes down the band. Circle and band triangle is inspired by children and animal games, going back to ancient Egyptian symbolic figures representing the eternal bond between a human and divine cats. The self completing circle represents the lifecycle, the triangle formed within the circle: mind, body and heart.
With affection, W.B.;
Estate of Charles G. Thalhimer, Richmond, Virginia
