About the Item
Portrait of a Monkey, 'Ruby', Painted and Inscribed by John Sutton, December 1, 1955
A captivating portrait of a monkey named 'Ruby,' painted and inscribed by John Sutton on December 1, 1955. This oil on canvas artwork, measuring 15 inches high by 10 inches wide, is housed in a simple wood frame, bringing the total dimensions to 15.5 inches high by 10.5 inches wide and 1.5 inches deep. The painting features a striking three-quarter portrait of a seated monkey, rendered with an impasto technique that adds texture and depth to the work. Influences from the expressionism school of artists are evident in the bold brushstrokes and emotive style.
Although the painting is apparently unsigned, it bears a dedication inscribed in pencil on the top of the stretcher: 'For Ruby on the occasion of his happiness, December 1, 1955, John Sutton.' This warm detail adds a personal and historical dedication to this work. The portrait is ready to hang and enjoy as is, or it can be reframed to suit your personal taste. This unique and evocative artwork will make a delightful addition to any collection, offering a glimpse into mid-20th-century artistic expression and a heartfelt dedication from the artist.
