About the Item

Outstanding 1940's oil on board painting in original custom shadowbox wood frame with distressed finish. The figural painting depicts an indigenous people or tribe unclothed, in what appears to be a wooded area with perhaps some semblance of clouds in the background. The painting mixes the use of dark muted colors using hues of rust, green, brown, beige, and black. This is a gorgeous painting with beautiful composition. The artist is unknown and the signature is not legible.
