Description: This is a powerful and expressive Vintage Old Mid Century Modern Black African Portrait Oil Painting on canvas, depicting a traditional African tribal woman and her son. She carries a basket on top of her head and clutches her child with her left arm. The subjects look to the left of the viewer's gaze and are depicting in a dignified and stoic way. Bold and abstracted brush strokes of yellows and blues highlight this piece. This piece appears to be unsigned, but perhaps you recognize the artist or their work? This painting likely dates to the 1950's - 1960's. Approximately 29 3/4 x 49 1/4 inches (including frame.) Actual artwork is approximately 28 3/4 x 48 inches. Good condition for age, with some light scuffing and edge wear to the canvas and frame (please see photos.) Acquired in Orange County, California.
