Original painting by Miller, watercolor on paper, 10.5 x 11.5, featuring vaguely female-looking serpentine figures surrounding a square of abstract figures, one resembling a house, with images of the sun and the moon around the outside. Signed near the bottom in black ink, “Henry Miller 4/46,” indicating this is the fourth watercolor made during the year of 1946. Triple-matted and framed to an overall size of 21.75 x 22.5. In fine condition. Over his lifetime, he painted over 2000 watercolors but sold few, preferring to give them to friends or sometimes trade them for food and supplies. An uncommon and particularly early offering, as most Miller artwork available to collectors dates from the 1960s or 70s. Oversized. Pre-certified John Reznikoff/PSA/DNA and RR Auction COA.
