A woman walking her dog, a girl at play, two women in conversation — an all-female street scene rendered in folk art silhouette, which is rarer than you'd think.
A reverse painted glass silhouette in a simple folk art style: loose, confident lines depicting a Victorian street with gas lamps and period buildings. The figures are entirely women — a detail that makes this piece genuinely uncommon among silhouettes of the type. Unmarked; estimated 1960s–1970s, though the street scene evokes the late 1800s. There is visible dust inside the glass — to clean it you'd need to remove the backing. If you love the patina of older objects, it reads perfectly as-is. Wood frame, no other issues.
On a gallery wall with other silhouettes, in a hallway, or as a quiet nod to the women of another era. For a collector of American folk art or silhouette work, or anyone who simply appreciates an unusual find.
