ANOTHER GREAT
A WWI era naive folk art portrait, executed in watercolor or gouache on paper, depicting a male military figure, likely a French officer. The subject is rendered in a distinctive style, featuring a blue uniform with a unique cap, a prominent white mustache, a sash, and medal ribbons on his chest. The artwork is signed ‘H.’ and dated ‘1918’ in the lower right corner. It is presented in a heavily carved wooden frame, which exhibits a dark, possibly ebonized, finish with an underlying gold or gilt layer visible through wear.
