Large vintage oil on canvas of a seated lady with a feather boa. Believed to be a courtesan or lady of the evening this portrait oil painting is believed to date to the 1930'/40's. Unsigned, it details the casual disdain for the onlooker of a mature woman who is either a seasoned dancer or entertainer. Her clothing and adornments suggest mediocrity in affluence yet her face is a wealth of information which would make anyone who encounters her second guess their own confidence. The slightly drab surroundings enhance her slightly wry expression which intimate that the lady is viewing you rather than the other way around. Confidently painted with large brush strokes this impressive oil on canvas has the character of the sitter summed up perfectly.
This vintage oil painting would make a great addition to your unique art collection, home wall decor, a fabulous housewarming or birthday gift.
