Canvas surface is 36″ tall by 30 1/4″ wide unframed. Painting is 42″ tall by 36″ wide framed. A large, absolutely exquisite painting executed by H. Hechavarria was a Latin American Folk artist who painted in the 1960s and 1970s. My late paternal grandparents were active and enthusiastic art collectors and benefactors who discovered (and in some instances supported) several “outsider” artists in the 1950s, 1960s and early 1970s… Long before the genre was identified as “outsider” and they assembled a considerable collection of “outsider” art, folk art and primitive art which they enjoyed displaying in their expansive North Lakeshore Drive home. Upon their deaths many of the pieces in their collection were bequeathed to The Art Institute of Chicago. This painting, which has hung on our wall since 1973, has been immaculately maintained and is offered in its original frame.
