CIrca 1930 / 1935, 1932. Original Oil Painting . No Binding. Near Fine. 9" x 12. Interesting Oil Portrait In Color, On Weber Artist Canvas Board, No. 11 Roman Drill Surface, 18" X 24", Apparently Cut To This Size, Manufactured By F. Weber Co. Philadelphia, All According To The Yellow Label Mounted On The Very Worn Black Backing. An Attractive Portrait, Apparently Of Geirge Orwel Circa 1932L, Leaning On His Left Hand And Staring Somewhat Belligerently But Resignedly At Viewer, Left Hand Has Not Been Finished. This Appears To Be A Portrait Of A Younger Orwell Than Usually Seen, Circa Early 1930'S, An Intense Young Man With A Small Mustache, Eyebrows Thinner And Higher Than Usually Seen, But With His Distinctive Right Ear Present. The Portrait Is Not Clearly Orwell In The 1920'S Or 1940'S, But Compares Favorably With The Few Early 1930'S Photographs Of Him That We Have Seen. Unmarked As To Subject, Not Clearly Identified As Orwell. Provenance Murky; From A California…

The main reason for the present widespread and growing interest is the powerful design combined with the beauty of the colour harmonies of the prints. But there are also other reasons; they depict a Japan of the past now almost vanished, its culture, mores, annual events, legends and its history; and they also show the influence of the Japanese print on the evolution of modern Western art.

The pages are white, crisp and clear of any markings. "This is a history of the visual arts produced in the geographical area that now constitutes the United States. Such a book is difficult to title. A History of United States Art sounds awkward and logically might even be construed to exclude the arts of the colonial period. Thus, with apologies to our northern and southern neighbors, I use the title A History of American Art, knowing full well that the terms America and the United States are not synonymous...." - Preface from A History of American Art
