AN ORIGINAL OIL PAINTING PORTRAIT OF A CRYING CLOWN<P>
An interesting portrait study of a crying clown. The clown has green eyes and a big red nose, and wears a green bow tie and humorous blue hat. Several tears flow from his eyes. The unusual yet subtle aspect of this portrait is not that the clown has a sad expression on his face, but that the tears seem to the viewer to be real ones, not painted on make-up, lending credibility to the often repeated notion that underneath the clown mask, the real personality of the typical clown may be a sad one. We can sometimes feel the hidden sadness even behind a smiling face in ouselves and others. <p>
The artist has signed this painting at the lower right, 'Yoko'. It is done on canvas, and is framed by decorated, brown-stained solid wood. Dimensions are 26.75" high by 20.75" wide overall. Condition is excellent, but the wood frame has some minor blemishes due to age, which is about the third quarter of the 20th century.
