The painting depicts a surrealistic motif and is signed with the name Malangata and dated 1998. This leads to the artist MALANGATANA (1936-2011) which is a known artist and famous for his art which is inspired by Tribal Art. This artwork has been verified in a further process.
This piece is in good condition and there are no serious damages visible.
An estimation would be between 2500 to 5000 USD.
This estimation is based on actual recent past recorded auction sales of comparables. Retail "asking prices" can be higher and vary.
With best regards,
Georg
