Original Small Beauty Salon Sign Painting on Wood from Benin

This sign is a small version, a replica, of a much larger commercial art painting that would have been commissioned by an artist, possibly even this very artist, to advertise her barbershop or beauty salon business. This artist signs his name “H. T. Gérard”; his studio is Arts Junior Benin. The artist painted this one to augment his income due to the appreciation for this art on a wider basis. We support him and his family when we buy his art as do you when you purchase it from us for which he and we thank you. The name of the business this sign would have been made to advertise is “Miss hairdo in Benin”. This sign measures approximately 8 1/2 x 6″ (22 x 15 x .3 cm)
