Medium: Original Watercolor & Pen-and-Ink Illustration on Textured Paper
Framing: Period Mid-Century Carved Faux-Bamboo Wooden Frame with Speckled Cork-Pattern Mat original 1940s regional folk art piece titled \"-Native Woman-\" lower center, hand-signed on the lower right by Jimmie Garrison and dated 1943 on the lower left.
This piece features a detailed illustration of a woman wearing a yellow dress and gold hoop earrings carrying a hand-woven basket, standing in front of a thatched-roof, woven-reed cottage. Rendered in a distinct folk style using fine ink crosshatching and warm watercolor washes, it highlights themes often associated with mid-century regional study, travel art, and Lowcountry/coastal genre scenes.
Housed in its original vintage faux-bamboo wooden frame with a cork-textured matting board, giving it a tropical aesthetic. Good vintage condition consistent with its 80+ year age. The artwork exhibits light age-related toning/patina on the paper. The frame shows minor surface wear/scuffs appropriate for vintage wood. Backing paper is intact with original framing nails visible.
