Poetic Artist Made Large Painted Papier Mache Face New York transit authority with what looks to meI found this at Brimfield and know it came out of an artists' estate, but I am not sure the name of the artist. Such a wonderfully expressive face, I'd be inclined to give a name to this guy and talk to him like friend (or therapist!) C. 1960s 70s I believe, painted papier mache, strung for hanging. 13" x 8 5 8" and in good condition, with a couple of small dings as documented.
