About the Item

ROBERT GOODNOUGH Seated Girl, 1961 Charcoal Drawing on Paper 23 3/4 × 18 inches Hand signed in charcoal on the front Unframed Unique This is an exquisite, rare poignant early Robert Goodnough drawing on paper called "Seated Girl", illustrating the artist's unique form of abstraction. The work was done on a sheet of large notebook paper, which was removed from its original frame - bearing the label (shown) from the American Federation of Arts. (Former collection of Elliot Gruenberg, West New York, New Jersey). Theframer discarded the frame with the label, but thankfully we were able to photograph the frame and make a copy the work was removed, so the original 1962 American Federation of the Arts label is shown here and the copy can be affixed when re-framed to preserve provenance.
