High Heels Humorous Watercolor
American: 1949
American: 1949
This eccentric painting is a humorous glimpse into one man's fantasies. It shows a woman's calves, in spike heels and seamed hose, framing a park scene and a multi-colored cartoon caterpillar emerging from the ground beneath her feet. A Yale student smoking a pipe approaches in the distance.
Condition: very good, with usual expected toning of paper.
