RARE -JEAN GOODWIN AMES -ORIGINAL PAINTING DALZELL HATFIELD GALLERIES L.A. -1945

Description: The painting is in good condition and is signed and dated 1945. It has the original gallery label on the back with the title. Her paintings don’t appear come up for sale that often and I was only able to find mostly enamels and ceramic pieces. It measures approximately 21 1/4 x 17 1/2“ framed, and the viewable image size is approximately 13 1/2 x 9 3/4“. There may be a slight buildup on the canvas with age, and it could probably use a professional cleaning. The frame does have a bit of wear with age, such as some scuffs and dings around the edges. Thanks for your interest.
