  • Herbert Laurence Davidson “Young Boy on Carousel”, Oil Painting, 1960s
    Located in San Francisco, CA
    A poignant 1960s oil painting on canvas depicting a young boy on a stationary carousel by important mid-century American artist Herbert Laurence Davidson (b. 1930–2018).

Signed "Herbert Davidson...
