The product is an original acrylic painting by artist Purvis Young, titled Procession. ” Measuring 29″ in length and 17 in height, this medium-sized artwork is signed by the artist and features a military-themed subject. Produced in 1980 in the United States, this unique piece of outsider art is one of a kind and handmade, making it a valuable addition to any art collection. Visual meaning: In his paintings, you often see long lines of figures – sometimes on horseback, sometimes on foot – moving through the city or across abstract backgrounds. These are the processions. Symbolic meaning: For Young, processions represented the movement of people through struggle and hope – a reflection of life, migration, protest, and spiritual journey. Cultural roots: He was inspired by what he saw in his Overtown neighborhood of Miami – parades, funerals, protests, and the flow of daily life in a vibrant but struggling Black community. Spiritual layer: Processions in his work often have a biblical or transcendent feeling, echoing pilgrimage or deliverance – people moving toward freedom or a better future.

This is a small original painting titled “Angel” by the artist Purvis Young, known for his Outsider Art style. The artwork measures 12 inches in width and 13 inches in length, and is signed by the artist. Created using acrylic paint on a fabric sample, this unique piece showcases Young’s distinctive artistic style. Originating from Overtown Miami Florida, this one-of-a-kind painting is unframed and reflects the contemporary period of art from 1970 to 2020. The piece is handmade and is an amazing piece of contemporary art to add to any collection. This artwork was acquired from the Purvis Young Museum directly from the late Larry T. My friend Larry titled this one. I have many others for sale in South Florida.

This Indian Folk art drawing/painting on fabric/cloth is amazingly detailed. I included pictures that show the phenomenal effort that was taken on this piece of art. The cloth is matted with green and framed with a very earthy wood frame. The frame measure 16.5 x 13.5 inches and the actual fabric measures 11.5 x 8.5 inches. This painting is stunningly beautiful. Please reach out if you have any questions.
