Moody and Very Mid-century Painting of Woman in Profile, Oil on Board crazy quilt Hard to beat the carved

Hard to beat the carved profile of his face

which I purchased at the estate sale of an avid art collector in Kansas City

The bottle--a partially molded hand-blown one with an Ss on the bottom--dates it I believe to the 1880s or so

This is a striking large carved wooden whimsy tower with four levels of balls in cages

Moody and Very Mid-century Painting of Woman in Profile, Oil on Board crazy quilt Hard to beat the carvedI love this portrait. Feels very 1960s 70s feminist awakening era to me, and I think she's got a bit of Mrs. Robinson about her too. (And, looking sober, focused, and keenly observant, she seems quite right for the present moment.) Found in Maine, oil on board, perfectly moody. 12" t x 10 7 8" w. Overall good vintage condition, with wear at corners including a bit of loss to upper left corner.
