Item Details
Description
rare series of frames, we have seen 5 of these frames painted with the acrylic front covering. Very important to note the date of 1999 and the nude statue of liberty WITH HAIR. This may be the earliest dated piece with hair marking the time frame of 1993 to 1996/98 his "NO HAIR PERIOD". thi sis still seemingly considered an early work as Benny painted for 15 more years until his untimely murder/suicide in 2014. One of the few known examples with a NUDE statue of liberty.
Condition
This auction is from 2 collections. Most of the folk art from the Bill Jones collection is environmental and was made to go outside. It will have normal wear see pictures. The Pottery came from one collection and is in great condition unless otherwise noted, however we do miss things so use the pictures as the ultimate guide.
