12" x 16" oil on paper board. Very happy about this catch, the seller went down to $3 as i was eyeballing it, but I insisted his $5 price was a done deal. Excellent condition in a vintage quality frame. Has a solid "E Hansen" signature but not dated anywhere, likely from the mid 1940's. I am way into west-coast modernist painting and this appears to be an excellent example of his later work. Ejnar (Einar) Hansen is from Denmark, was a member of the "De Trotten" movement, and came to the US in 1914, eventually settling in Southern California. Please contact me if you know anything more about this painting!
