Description: This original modern painting by reknowned Cuban-born artist Mario Carreño is signed by the artist and includes a Certificate of Authenticity (COA) issued by the widow of the artist in 2010. Ink and watercolor on paper, with a figurative theme and a modernist style reminiscent of artists in that post war modernist era such as Spaniards Joan Miró and Picasso. The painting measures 14 by 11 inches and is framed to enhance its beauty. Professionally matted and framed with a 3-inch wide mat and 2-inch wide solid wood frame - fully framed size is 24" x 21". Reflection control glass. Carreño died in 1999 and his pieces are highly sought after and reside in many of the world's greatest museums such as MOMA in NYC and Musée de Paume in Paris. I have had this hanging in my bedroom for the last four years among much larger pieces, and it is a stand out in its perfect simplicity and primary color palette. PRICED TO SELL, Carreño's pieces sell for premium prices in galleries and auction houses. The last photo you see in the photo set is a Sotheby's auction listing for a perfect comparable to this piece. Pre-auction estimate: $8000-$12000.
