A wonderful oil portrait of a young woman in the attire of a 1940s housewife, leaning against a dresser. The young woman has a truly unique face and a intense expression that captures the viewer and pulls them in with an almost accusatory stare. Her body rests elegantly on the edge of the dresser with one graceful arm at her side, the other curving gracefully over the wooden shelf of the cupboard. The title suggests the girl is from Sark Island which is a part of the Channel Islands in the southwestern English Channel, off the coast of Normandy, France.
This hugely characterful portrait has been signed in the lower left corner and inscribed in verso with the title and artist's address.
On board.The condition is typical for a picture of this age including some discolouration but overall good condition.
