I found he was was born in Knoxville, Tennessee, in 1952. But I can’t find a date for the painting.

He looks kinda old in this painting. According to Ovid, Narcissus died when he was 16. This guy doesn't look like a 16 year old child, he looks like a grown adult.

Chronic onliner and unhinged ERPer wants the half-naked person in the painting to be a minor, more news at 11.

Drag questions the decision to draw a half naked child at all. John Woodrow Kelley has some explaining to do.
