Description

1949-53 SAD CIRCUS CLOWN PAINTING FRAMED
SEEMS TO BE SIGNED BY HIGGINS
20.5 X 24.5 INCH WITH FRAME
I BOUGHT THIS 25 YEARS AGO IN AN ESTATE SALE IN WESTMOUNT , QUEBEC.
THIS PAINTING WAS IN THE BASEMENT AND HANGING ON THE WALL
THE MAN SELLING AT THE ESTATE WAS THE SON  OF THE MAN WHO DIED AND HIS HOME WAS UP FOR SALE.
HE SAYS IT WAS A DEPICTION OF HIS FATHER MEANING HIS FATHER AS A CLOWN.THE ARTIST WHO EITHER CAME FROM MONTREAL OR NEW YORK STATE WAS FAMOUS FOR CLOWN PAINTINGS .
IT IS VERY HUGE WITH A VERY IMPRESSIVE FRAME.
THE PAINTING HAS SOME SLIGHT WEAR AS SEEN LOWER END TOP NEAR SIGNATURE , SOME CRACKING AND LINING.
HOWEVER STILL VERY DESIRABLE  I NEED TO DOWNSIZE AND HAVE THOUSAND OF ITEMS TO SELL , BUT I DO HATE TO SEE IT GO !
SHIPPING WONT BE CHEAP AS I WILL NEED TO WRAP IN BUBBLE WRAP AND A HUGE BOX.
A RARE FIND FOR A CLOWN OR ART LOVER
THE PAINTING HAS SOME SLIGHT
