This is an original oil on board painting by Harley Brown. The painting is titled "Mrs. Old Medicine". This piece was offered by Settlers West Galleries and comes with the original exhibit program which is inscribed and signed by Harley Brown. From the program, Harley Brown said about the painting: "Tough, independent, and pretty hardy. I followed Mrs. Old Medicine around for a good part of a morning while she ignored my intrusions. Once in a while she would recognize my persistence, but mostly she would brush me off and go about her business. My intention in the portrait was to capture her strong individuality.". The painting is a sepia oil and shows the distinct character in the woman's face. The painting is in good condition. It has been placed in a beautiful gilt frame. The frame measures 20" x 23".
