About the Item
Clementine Hunter, African House
This is an excellent example of Hunter’s work, featuring the iconic African House. Three figures are present in the work, a boy, a girl, and an elderly seated figure. The girl carries a bright blue jug, and is dressed in a bright pink dress and shoes. The boy wears a red shirt and white hat. The seated older woman wears bright blue. The background is a stunning shade of yellow. Four oak trees are featured in this work, two larger trees flanking the African House, two smaller trees on either side of the figures. This piece features an incredibly vivid Louisiana Sky. Center on the piece is the iconic African House at Melrose Plantation, where Hunter painted her largest and most famous works as murals.
Signed with "CH" with iconic backwards C, the C and H are touching but not overlapping, signifying the artist's prime, 1960-1970.
Authenticated by world renowned Clementine Hunter expert Tom Whitehead, then purchased from an estate who purchased it directly from the artist.

BMW Isetta, Messerschmitt Cars Autobahn - Humorous Mid-Century Illustration
Located in Miami, FL
One of the hallmarks of great art is recognizing the artist's style instantly. This is the case with Richard Erdoes. His highly stylized comic figures are expressive and communicate the story delightfully and joyfully. Even though this work is rendered in flat, minimalistic two colors, the inventive shape relationships and positive and negative areas convey a very high level of artistic skill. The present work was done on assignment for the prestigious Standard Oil ( Exxon's predecessor ) corporation's company magazine, The Lamp. Although not a newstand magazine, The Lamp had the highest editional and artistic content. Work is unsigned and unframed.
Richard Erdoes (Hungarian Erdős, German Erdös; July 7, 1912 – July 16, 2008) was an American artist, photographer, illustrator and author.
