About the Item
'Portrait of Man in Cap', oil on canvas, French School (circa 1960s-70s). This artwork was discovered in the South of France. A splendid portrait it is and is most likely from one of the countries in French-speaking Africa. Most of those countries that speak French are in Western and Central Africa, with others scattered across the continent. Having arrived in Africa from colonial activity, French took on many different forms and maintained use to some degree in nearly two dozen nations. In addition to the continent of Africa, there are many other French speakers including those called Creoles. Creole is a term used to refer to the mixed-race descendants of Europeans and Africans born in the islands. Creole languages based on French exist mostly in Haiti, Louisiana, and Mauritius. Both in Africa and in the islands, the inhabitants wore colourful garments including head coverings and caps. The artist may have portrayed this subject on a local feast day or family celebration. Lamentably, it is unsigned but the quality of the work is unquestionable. It is in good overall condition in its spectacular, original ornate frame. Please enjoy the many photos accompanying the listing. Upon request, a video of the artwork will be provided.
