Seller's description

Specifications

May include: Hand-painted rectangular wooden plaque depicting a sailor holding a Greek flag. The sailor wears a white uniform with a blue collar. The background shows a red sun, birds, and a blue and yellow seascape.

Greek sailor painting is a vintage, folk art painting of a Greek sailor on salvaged wood.It's an art brute- art, or naif painting of a sailor with Greek flag, made by folk art, self taught artist E. Kokori, who only still paints on reclaimed pieces of wood, salvaged from old furniture usually.
This sailor with a Greek flag painting has been painted on a salvaged piece of wood from discarded, old furinture, or vintage pieces of wood that the artist used to buy.
It's a long, narrow piece of wood with an extra piece of smaller wood, attached to the top part of the painting, like a frame part.The sailor is a typically, Medierranean, Greek guy of old, with rosy cheeks and a moustache.He is standing with his feet apart, somewhere near the sea, holding a small Greek flag, the size people carry on parades.He is clad in his white uniform with blue details in the blouse and belt, complete with the nautical, white cap.Behind him is the sea with a couple of birds and a faded red, round sun.The sky/background is light blue and the painted frame around the painting is a royal blue/ indigo shade.The added frame piece is this same blue with a white flower theme painted.The back of the wood is painted black and there is a piece of wire attached at the top of the back part from which to hang the painting.On the lower, left part of the painting the artist has signed with her initials.

This sailor, folk painting measures about 25cm in height x 9cm in length x 2cm in width
( 9.84'' x 3.54'' x 0.78'').It is not a heavy piece of wood.It has been painted with acrylic paint and varnished on top of the paint for a longer stay of colours.This is just the piece for a collection, for an art lover friend, for a rustic, bohemian interior, sea house decor, etc.
