a15_v_bw_o_n (1971, unnumbered press photo)

A fantastic artist’s depiction of the deployment of the Particles and Fields Subsatellite from the Scientific Instrument Module (SIM) Bay of Apollo 15 CSM ‘Endeavour’.

I’m not totally sure, but I believe it’s a valid depiction for Apollo 16, ignorantly assuming its SIM Bay configuration to be the same.

 

Not surprisingly, and I’m quite certain about this, by Russ Arasmith. Not only does the style lead me to the conclusion, but also the “4”, the numbering being common to many of his works depicting key moments from the depicted mission.
