About the Item
The original oil on canvas painting depicts a country scene with a woman handing laundry on the line with a few chickens and a dog surrounding her. Bright dress and colorful laundry juxtapose softer, more reserved colors of the landscape and the building behind the woman, drawing viewer's attention directly to the artwork's main subject.
Jan Bačur (1937-2022) was renowned listed Naive Art artist of Slovak origin; he was based in Padina, a village near Kovačica, Serbia, and affiliated with Kovacica Naive Art School. He participated in a group exhibition in Padina, Serbia in 1950, when he was only 13 years old, and became a member of the Kovacica Naive Art Gallery in Kovacica, Serbia, in 1962. He was often referred to as a chronicler, who looked at Padina as a village that changes in time, but somehow remains the same. His paintings, whether it was a portrait, landscape, or genre art, reflect layers of time and memories that speak about conserved and ancient traditions, with remarkable accuracy of the rural architecture and respectful nods to traditional Slovak costumes. Bačur's work was shown in 28 individual exhibitions in Serbia and abroad, as well as multiple internation group exhibitions.
The painting is signed and dated by the artist in lower right corner; it has the original gallery paper label attached on reverse: "Jan Bačur, address and phone number, title "Laundry Washing", oil on canvas, 30x40 cm, 1986." It comes in the original solid wood frame.
Provenance: The painting was acquired from the estate of Thomas Muir Wilson, the renowned photographer and graphic designer, based in Rochester, NY. Wilson worked as the designer of exhibition galleries at George Eastman House Museum of Photography in 1961-62, Art professor and instructor in Photography and Graphic Design at Minneapolis School of Art, Photography instructor at Rochester Institute of Technology, and instructor in Sculpture
Design at Nazareth College in Rochester, NY. He formed Craft World Tours, taking people on themed excursions around the globe; during his travels, he amassed a spectacular collection of amazing items from all over the world, with the emphasis on Naive and Folk Art and traditional arts and crafts, including pottery, baskets, paintings, and textiles.

Folk Art Naive Oil Painting Ljubomir Milinkov Whimsical Pastoral Farm Landscape
By Ljubomir Milinkov
Located in Surfside, FL
Ljubomir Milinkov (1938)
Oil painting on board,
Whimsical pastoral farm landscape
Hand signed upper right,
Dimensions: painting 12-1/2 x 15-1/2 inches. framed 18.5 x 21.5 inches
Ljubomir Milinkov depicts a fantasy like setting using bold colors, and carefully planned out brushstrokes. The figures and inanimate objects that fill the composition are out of proportion, bi-dimensional, and primitive, cartoonist in terms of style. In fact this painting is iconic of Milinkov's Naif style.
His work was sold by Wally Findlay Galleries in New York and Palm Beach and he has designed silk scarves for Hermes.
Born in Sovac, Serbia, Arrived in France in 1962.
Milinkov enters the world of art. He begins to distill his own style.
Good life and beautiful models on the Place du Tertre in Montmartre fill and inspire him. In 1967 he went on an adventure to the USA. For 6 months in 1968 he crossed America from New York to San Francisco aboard his own Cadillac hearse, bought for this trip. It's the full hippie period, he shaves his head in contrast to all the bearded people around him. Back in New York in 1969, he exhibited at the Woodstock Music & Art Fair with 60 artists, five hundred thousand visitors. Sponsored by the organizers to register for 2 years at the New York School of Fine Arts, he declines this generous offer to preserve his freedom and explore his own fauvist mode of expression. Proud to be a graduate of the Fine Arts Schools of “Nulle part” and “Every where”.
In 1972 he opened his first solo exhibition at the Masseur Museum of Art, Monroe, Louisiana. In 1973 he joined the Wally Findlay International Gallery, with which he worked exclusively for 16 years, exhibiting in New York, Chicago, Palm Beach, Beverly Hills, Paris. He was included in the show "One of a Kind" along with Artists: Camille Bombois, Orville Bulman, Henri Maik, Gustavo Novoa and Annette Ollivary.
His tapestry “Noah's Ark” was purchased by the royal family of Saudi Arabia. In 1974 he returned to France and settled between Cannes and Paris. His collaboration with French design house legend Hermes began in 1982: creation of the first Carré “Jardin Enchanté”, followed in 1998 by Gavroches scarves “La Cavale Joyeuse” and “Les Ailes pleines de Joie” and in 2013 the Carré “Bateau Flowery”. It is the “Enchanted Garden” which will have had the honor in 1983 of being the emblem of Hermès' participation in the 150th anniversary of Central Park in New York, where he will be the guest of honor. Also in 1982, creation of his second Aubusson tapestry "Arche de Noé n ° 2". In 2000 his famous “Twin towers” paintings...
