Rose Cecil O'Neill (1874-1944)
Perseus with the Head of Medusa (1900 - 1920)
Signed lower right and titled back side of the work.
While not one of her 'Sweet Monsters' series, this homage to a tale from the Classics ranks high among Rose O'Neill's more serious works, displaying a palette of subtle hues in a technique found in few of the artist's works.
Sheet size 18.25 x 22.5, frame measures 26.5 x 31 inches.
Very good condition, no stain, damage or repair, the sheet laid to card stock.
Provenance: The Estate of Robert Allan Haas
$3,000 - $5,000
