Vintage portrait in oils of Kenyan girl, painted in the 1970's by Gaston, Kenyan artist.
Description : 14 Apr, 2023
Gaston painted pictures which he would travel around Kenya in order to sell to help support his family. This, and one other in my possession, he sold in 1976 in a town called Embu, near the base of Mt. Kenya. They both returned to UK, and are now offered for sale again.
The portrait is in oils on canvas, in perfect condition, and measure approximately 22 x 16 inches. It is very attractive, lively and colourful, and is now mounted on a backboard of hardwood (it's original 'rough' wood frame did not last) surrounded by one later added in UK. The excellent condition is due to a large extent by it's having been in storage for many years.
Collection from Dersingham, Norfolk, would be appreciated, but p&p at £5 to mainland UK addresses is available if required. Inspection is invited.
Please feel free to contact me for any further and better particulars.
