Description

This is an original Art Work of Vera Louise Drysdale. I found it in an attic in Tucson. On the back she wrote: "Song of Maya". Xochiquetzal - Goddess of Flowers "the flowering ones" (Maiden aspect of the Great Mother Goddess) celebrated in the spring flower festival in Mexico. It´done in her handwriting. The drawing is behind glass, because of that the flash of the camera reflects in the glass (photo)

The frame is original as well. It is backed with cardboard with Mrs. Drysdale´s handwriting.

37 cm x 56 cm

It looks like colored pencil on watercolor paper.

I really would like to know what it´s worth! It is an awesome picture, vibrant in colors, spiritual in expression.

The picture had been gifted to the Tucson Waldof School for a school auction. I don´t know who gifted it. A year after the auction we cleaned the attic and I found the picture. I was permitted to keep it. It probably could be possible to find out how the picture got there. But that would take some time. I am absolutely certain that it IS an original. Incl. frame with handwriting on back.
Price Paid (If known) found it - was then gifted to me
