A folk art painting by Horace Pippin, 'West Chester, Pennsylvania' presents a view of a brick building and tree, rendered in a simple, direct style with bold colours and flat perspective.
Horace Pippin (1888-1946) was an American folk artist who began painting relatively late in life, after an injury sustained during World War I limited the mobility of his right arm. Largely self-taught, Pippin developed a distinctive style characterised by flat planes, strong outlines, and a limited colour palette. His subject matter often reflected his personal experiences, memories of his childhood, and observations of daily life in his community. He is recognised for his contributions to American art, particularly for his honest and direct portrayals of African American life. 'West Chester, Pennsylvania' depicts a view of a brick building partially obscured by a large tree. The building's red brick contrasts with the blue sky and white clouds above. A white picket fence runs along the front of the property, adding a sense of enclosure. The composition is simple and direct, with a focus on the geometric forms of the building and the organic shape of the tree. The painting's flat perspective and bold colours are typical of Pippin's folk art style.

Beautiful print, great quality and love it with the white frame. Delivery was really fast. I've had loads of compliments from visitors as I've hung it in my hallway as the first thing you see when you enter the house. Couldn't be happier.
