Yes, that is a panda. Specifically, it was a portrait of Ling Ling, a panda who lived at the National Zoological Park in DC, USA: if I recall correctly, it was the occasion of that panda's death that prompted the creation of the picture. The artist was Susie Oviatt <sus...@netcom.com> (no idea if that address is still active), who has often requested that her name be kept on her art. -Catalyst
