I saw this in 1981 as part of the turnee of Animation (I think it was the 15th turnee) at the Biograph in Washington DC (witch is now a CVS). It is one of the most beautiful film shorts I've ever seen. It turned me on to Eric Satie's music.. I'd love to have this on DVD. The animator used images from the history of art as well as wild violent slapstick
