L.A. McMillenOil painting of Clownc. 1930s
c. 1930s
About the Item
This is a painting done by the American artist L.A. McMillen. It is signed lower right and is in excellent condition for the period. This shows a clown scene with the face of a man in the curtain as well as a carnival in the background. The carnival details all around the clown, both laying on the floor and surrounding him in the painting, truly tie together the character of this charming painting. The color scheme mainly features primary colors in the main subjects to emphasize them, while keeping a muted palette in the background. The expressions on the characters in the painting tell the whole story and are very well done. This painting is circa 1920s and is in great condition for its period!
