This original hand printed picture is a unique and compositionally attractive piece. It uses blacks to set an overall dark overtone only to be broken by the harshly contrasting human face and blue spatters around the edges. This stunning picture is appropriately framed in an aluminum frame and matted in a cream colored mat. It is signed in the lower left corner in pencil and measures a total of 17.25? x 14.5?.
