- Original oil or acrylic portrait on composite board by listed Guelph, Ontario folk artist Hertha Muysson. - True to Muysson's celebrated "imaginary portrait" style, this piece depicts a stylized woman with expressive blue eyes and long flowing hair, framed against a muted, textured golden-brown background. - Her characteristic naive handling of form and deeply personal interpretation make this an exceptional piece of Canadian outsider art. - The reverse features full artist attributions and cataloging notes handwritten on the wooden mounting block: "By Hertha Muysson, 1898–1986, Guelph Ont, c. 1980" along with the initials "HM". - Muysson did not begin painting until late in life, and her work has been exhibited at institutional venues including the Agnes Etherington Art Centre and McLaughlin Library. - Good vintage condition with minor surface wear consistent with age, including a small vertical scratch on the upper right quadrant of the subject's hair. Sold as is - Dimensions: 16"W x 20"H PICK UP DATES: We are offering 2 pick up dates for your convenience, pick up on Sunday Nov 22 from 10am-1pm or Tuesday Nov 24 from 5pm-7pm.
