Three-Quarters View, Peter Passuntino Painterly Oil on Paper Portrait of a Man, 1960s mixed media painting and there is some lacquer

and there is some lacquer loss to the underside of the box

seeming all the more existential

This one measures Largest measure approx 10 1/2” wide x 10 5/8" tall and is in very good condition

I especially love this little bit of reddish stamp giving the hat of the boy at right a little pompom

with some wear to the wood and finish and  a couple of white spots near the center of one side

Three-Quarters View, Peter Passuntino Painterly Oil on Paper Portrait of a Man, 1960s mixed media painting and there is some lacquerA couple more works on paper today by Peter Passuntino (b. Chicago, 1936), dating to the 1960s this and a second portrait, which I think may both be self portraits but I'm not entirely sure. (Lots out there about Passuntino, including photos.) I find them both very full of life, and tender too, and this one beautifully, skillfully painted, and better in person. 10" x 10 1 2". Oil, ink, watercolor on heavy paper. Very good condition.
