Mansion House Antiques & Fine Art has dated this piece to the 1950s.
The artist was born in Sicily in 1925 and became a world re-nowned painter and was acclaimed in both continents as one of the few living artists worthy to be considered a descendant of the Italian Renaissance.
Wherever he has shown his paintings,critics and public alike have acknowledged him a rare living master and truly a Twentieth Centurt Phenomenon.
Arnot & Co on New York have been an established art gallery since 1878, and in past years have sold and commissioned many of his works.
I believe the artist is no longer alive and so collectors often snap up examples whenever they become available,which these days is a rarity.
