Item Details

An original 1937 watercolor painting by listed American artist Dorothy Dumesnie Compton (1917-), titled Lazy Bones. The expressive piece depicts two men sitting on a curb.

An exhibition label from Southern States Art League, Museum of Fine Arts, Montgomery Alabama that is signed ‘Dorothy Compton Stephenson’ is attached to the verso, along with a hanging wire. The painting is presented behind glass and mat and housed in a wooden frame. More information about the artist can be found under Related Links.
