Oil on canvas, framed. Attributed to William H. Johnson (1901–1970). Featuring a vibrant folk-art style rural landscape depicting workers in a field with an oxcart, church, and sunlit background. Signed W.H. Johnson on the lower left. Accompanied by a gallery label from Galeries A.A.A. on the verso. 35.5 x 24 inches (approx. 90.2 x 61 cm), Frame 45 x 33 inches (approx. 114.3 x 83.8 cm). This striking work exemplifies Johnson's mature expressionist folk style, characterized by flattened perspective, bright primary colors, and poignant depictions of African American rural life, aligning closely with similar masterworks held in prestigious permanent museum collections such as the Smithsonian American Art Museum in Washington, D.C., and the Art Institute of Chicago
