A striking vintage 1970s original acrylic on canvas primitivist pop art tribal oceanic Face artwork by Lucille. I purchased this painting and another larger by the same artist at a local estate sale, but unfortunately no information about the artist was available, and I haven't been able to find anything online so far. No doubt inspired by an original artwork featured in "Oceanic Art" (1970) by Alberto Cesare Ambesi which was on the cover of the book, and shown inside as well with the following caption: "16 Picture on palm bracts sewn together and painted. From Kambrambo, lower Sepik area, New Guinea. Museum für Völkerkunde, Basle." This original artwork is unframed and measures 28" tall by 22" wide by about 1" deep. A striking image, and entirely painted by hand on canvas! This artwork is unsigned, but is by the same hand as the other I have for sale which is signed "Lucille". Excellent vintage condition.

A wild vintage 1970s original painting on canvas inspired by Oceanic art of the Sepik river region of Papua New Guinea.

A huge vintage 1970s signed original acrylic on canvas modern primitivist pop art tribal oceanic Faces artwork by Lucille. I purchased this painting and another smaller by the same artist at a local estate sale, but unfortunately no information about the artist was available, and I haven't been able to find anything online. The other smaller painting was hugely influenced by an original tribal artwork on the cover of the book, "Oceanic Art" by Alberto Cesare Ambesi from 1970, and I've no doubt that this one is also influenced by tribal oceanic artworks as well. Really huge, this artwork is unframed and measures 48" tall by 28" wide by about 1" deep. A striking image, and entirely painted by hand on canvas! Signed at front near the bottom at right as shown, "Lucille". Other than some spotting to the canvas at back as shown in my photos, this painting is in great vintage condition.

A large vintage 1970s signed original painting on canvas no doubt inspired by Tribal Art - measures 4' tall!
