There is a bit of old writing on the wood

This piece is very finely woven in wool on a cotton weft

Full of life and warmth and also totally ethereal

with the Festhalle (exhibition hall) in the background

Humphrey Bogart with Cigarette, Charmingly Naive Vintage Graphite Drawing mexican folk art shoe form with no incorporation of raffiaJust a fun one; Humphrey Bogart forever. Rendered in graphite, charmingly naive, signed at lower right. C. 1980s I believe I found it (at Brimfield) along with a second portrait by the same person (since sold) of Tammy Faye Baker! 10 1 8" x 8 1 8" framed, under glass, inexpensive metal frame, as found. Ribbed texture of cardboard backing has resulted in some corresponding light toning, which just seems all of a piece with it.
