Catalogue Note
The painting, which was given to Williams by Bridges, depicts a portion of the Pinocchio figure that is featured in The Fisher King (Tri-Star, 1991). According to the film's director, Terry Gilliam, the Pinocchio doll symbolizes Jack (played by Bridges) trying to become a real human.
