One of the first paintings I saw of Yacoubi's during that first, fateful visit - "The Theater" - 4' X 5' oil on linen, 1975
Loving black and white photography, this is one of my first shots of Yacoubi on the roof of 47 Great Jones Street.
I don't know who took this photo of Yacoubi in the front room of his loft on 47 Great Jones Street, but he is shown in front of one of the most beautiful silk "haitis", a Morrocan tapestry he used tastefully behind his bed.
This is a poloroid taken of Yacoubi during our visit to Jane Kazlow's on Central Park South.
