About the Item
Francis Jennings (b. Wilmington, DE 1910 - 1993 NYC) painted this framed surreal cubist oil on board in 1953 while residing in NYC. In vivid colors, Jennings depicted a large cat with a large bird in his mouth, probably bringing indoors as a gift to his owner. Signed Jennings 1953 lower right corner.
