William Newcombe Mid Century Abstract Nude
By William John Bertram Newcombe
Located in San Francisco, CA
William John Bertram Newcombe: 1907-1969. Listed Canadian and British artist known for Abstraction. He has had auction results over $4000.

It is either mixed media or watercolor on paper. It measures approximately 29 inches high by 18 1/2 wide but is matted so could be larger. The frame measures 36 1/4 by 25 1/4. This piece was part of the Vincent Price collection...
