William Tolliver (American, 1951-2000), "The Horn Player", mixed media print with pastel on Somerset paper, signed lower right in gold, marked as printer's proof with "P/P" lower left. Modern figural work depicting a seated male musician in yellow hat, red top and blue jeans playing a gold horn surrounded by brightly colored panels. Sheet size approximately 22.25" x 15". Note: In the vein of Romare Bearden (American, 1911-1988) and Jacob Lawrence (American, 1917-2000), William Tolliver is counted among the great African American artists of the 20th century. Tolliver's work is characterized by his self-taught genius and the resulting evolutionary progression of his chosen materials and even style of painting.
