A charcoal drawing of an African Woman by Irma Stern. Irma was the recipient of numerous awards in her lifetime including the Molteno Grant for outstanding work (1952), the Guggenheim Foundation National Award for South Africa (1960), the Oppenheimer Award (1963) and the Medal of Honor of Die Suid-Afrikaanse Akademie vir Wetenskap en Kuns (1965). She was also selected to represent South Africa at the Venice Biennale in 1950, 1952, 1954 and 1958. Stern was a prolific artist and exhibitor, with shows throughout her lifetime and beyond in South Africa and Europe. She was also a vociferous collector of art and artefacts and her home and collection in Cape Town became the Irma Stern Museum in 1972. Her work is held in public and private collections around the world, and her works command significant, increasingly record-breaking prices for South African art. The drawing is profesionally mounted and framed and supplied with coa. Size of drawing: 11.5x8.25 inches.
