Elizabeth Phillips & Tony Zwicker, The American Livre de Peintre, 48 ("Scully, long a champion of abstract art as a democratic language capable of expressing pure feeling, here maps the African continent in a group of etchings, which, with their brooding intensity, run parallel to the unfolding of Conrad's sombre allegory").
