Late, renowned African American artist Andrew Turner created this acrylic on canvas in 1974. It is an early work from the artist, making it an instant collectible. Turner's two favorite subjects were children and jazz scenes. This sepia-toned work is of an adorable little African American girl, sitting in slight repose. The canvas, on a wooden frame, is 16" X 12". The artist's original Chester, PA studio card is included, along with the dried masking tape the artist used to affix the card to the back of the piece. This has been in my collection since the early 90's, when Turner first rose to prominence. The frame faint outline is from Turner's signature ill-fitting frame against his work. This does not take away from the value of this collectible. Andrew Turner's life was tragic and short-lived, but his legacy lives on. The value will continue to appreciate.
