Can anybody tell me who's the artist of this great painting with the three young women? And maybe the date of execution? Would be really great! Thx
ReplyDeleteI have this paintings attributed either to Vicente Navarro y Romero (Spanish, 1888-1979) or José Navarro Llorens (Spanish, 1867-1923) under the title" The Slave Market", I doubt this since it is signed J. Navarro so it may belong to Jose Navarro LLorens ( but the painting style is different) I'll try to find out about it.
