Vivid mid-century oil painting on board titled “Jamaican Boy,” created and signed by M. Anthony Lester in Jamaica, 1965. The artwork depicts a young Jamaican man in a boldly colored striped shirt and wide-brimmed hat, rendered in Lester’s expressive, textured technique. The reverse includes the artist’s handwritten title, signature, date, and a biographical excerpt from Who’s Who in Art (11th Edition, London, England), further supporting provenance. Housed in its original vintage wooden frame.
Light expected age wear to frame; painting remains rich and well-preserved.
