    Description

    THIS BELONGED TO A RELATIVE ...SHE TRAVELED ALLOT AND VISITED NEW ORLEANS A NUMBER OF TIMES. I BELIEVE THIS IS AN EARLY 1980'S PAINTING OF BOURBON ST ON ANTIQUE ROOF SLATE TILE. IT IS VERY DETAILED AND SIGNED "KEN" IN THE LOWER RIGHT. IT APPEARS TO BE AN ORIGINAL PAINTING NOT A PRINT GLUED TO A TILE. I HAD NEVER SEEN THIS BEFORE I INHERITED IT AND DID NOT GET ANY INFORMATION EXCEPT WHAT IS ON THE RIBBON ACROSS THE UPPER LEFT CORNER AND A DESCRIPTION PIECE ATTACHED TO THE BACK. I DID ONLINE SEARCH AND FINALLY FOUND OTHER WORKS BY THIS FAMOUS NEW ORLEANS ARTIST WHO DIED IN 2019. HE WAS EUROPEAN AND STUDIED IN EUROPE THEN CAME TO NEW ORLEANS IN THE LATE 60's EARLY 70's. I AM GUESSING AT THE DATE AS I AM NOT SURE WHEN SHE WOULD HAVE ACQUIRED IT. I LOVE THE DETAIL IN THE FIGURES AND THE BUILDINGS.
