Painting Oil on Canvas by Bob Meyer: Bathing Cap Gaza, Framed

A woman in a pale cap, a child at her hip, and one long band of yellow.

Bathing Cap Gaza is a framed oil on canvas by Bob Meyer, from France, about 2017. A woman stands facing forward, with a long neck, a narrow face and a downcast mouth. Her cap and short-sleeved dress are worked in chalky whites over red-brown. One arm reaches across to hold a smaller figure against her side, whose round head is turned away. A yellow stripe crosses the pale, pinkish background behind them. The silver frame is broad and deeply rippled. Twenty-six and a half inches wide and 30 high.

Neither of them explains.
