Peter, when a child constructed a complex city in his parents backyard which he called Atlantis. Many of the objects and structures in this magical city would be the template for much of his works later in life.
This photo was kindly sent by Steve Leatheam who says “Attached is an image taken by myself in 1974 from Ken and Betty Parsons’s backyard in Springwood. It shows the miniature concrete city which Peter had constructed as a young boy several years earlier.”
