De foto's zien er helaas wat flets uit, in werkelijkheid zijn de kleuren levendiger / dieper.
Olga Dengo (Maputo / Mozambique, 1980). Momenteel woont zij in Antwerpen.
Deze kunstenares is bepaald geen onbekende in de moderne Afrikaanse kunst !
Zo heeft ze aan vele internationale exposities meegedaan en heeft ze 3 x een
solo expositie gehad in Galerie 23 (KNMS Eiland Amsterdam), toonaangevend
in Europa wat betreft moderne Afrikaanse kunst.
Dit schilderij is in 2009 bij Galerie 23 aangekocht, de nota is voorhanden. Het schilderij
heeft nooit gehangen en verkeert in zeer goede staat / ZGAN. 2 kleine deukjes in het doek,
waarschijnlijk ontstaan tijdens de opslag (geen UV).
