I heard once that paintings are the jewelry of a room. It is difficult to pick out a piece of jewelry for another person--it really is so personal. But we sell paintings often--so maybe selecting paintings that will appeal to others is an easier task.
Who is the woman in this painting? I haven't a clue. The piece is not titled and not signed. It is clearly a 1950s/60's vintage and framed under glass. The woman is seated and pensively staring at the viewer. I like to take a few moments and reflect on the paintings we buy. What is their history? Who if anyone sat for the portraits? Sometimes there are answers--often not.
