ORIGINAL OIL PAINTING PORTRAIT OF AN INCAN HIGH PRIEST<P>
A rare and remarkably well-rendered portrait of an Incan high priest, dressed in traditional colorful indigenous attire and holding a staff decorated in chased silver. The collector from whom we purchased this portrait painting stated that he purchased it in the Haitian countryside and brought it to the U.S. thirty to forty years ago. <p>
The colors are attractive and vibrant and the details are well executed in this unusual portrait, signed by the artist at lower left, 'acuario'. This painting probably depicts a Peruvian Incan figure. The canvas has loosened a little over the years and creases can be seen from its current stretcher framework, but it can easily be re-stretched. Dimensions are approximately 34" high by 18" wide.
