Vintage Navajo Oil On Canvas Painting by Jimmy Yellowhair

This Vintage Navajo Oil On Canvas Painting by Jimmy Yellowhair beautifully depicts the portrait of a Diné against a single tone background. Displaying a stoic face that has a look of wonder, dressed in the finest Navajo jewelry, velvet shirt, also wearing a traditional pattern handkerchief around his head. Perhaps attending a ceremonial dance or on his way to one of the Western rodeo and fairs. The portrait is softened by the play of paint in the background. The art is in extremely, good condition and it's signed by Jimmy Yellowhair in the lower right.  Painted on stretch canvas the dimensions are 24" by 20". This Vintage Navajo Oil On Canvas Painting would be an authentic Southwest addition to your home or office, bringing a touching element of the golden years!
