Vintage C. Benolt Original Framed Painting Still Life 3D Impasto Southwestern 17x21

A stunning, authentic late-20th-century original framed canvas painting by American artist Charles Redmond Benolt (signed c. Benolt in the lower-left corner). This piece features Benolt's signature 3D heavy impasto texture, giving the Southwestern motif incredible depth and tactile realism. The composition depicts a classic Southwestern still life: a tall woven carrying basket with a geometric animal motif, a coiled green basket plaque, a textured pink pottery vase filled with desert wildflowers, a beaded necklace, and a shaded desert melon/gourd. Authentic Signature: Clearly hand-signed c. Benolt on the lower left. Rich Texture: High-relief impasto brings the woven baskets and pottery to life. Framed & Ready to Hang: Housed in a clean, low-profile black frame that complements modern, boho, Santa Fe, or mid-century decor. Excellent color vibrancy with no paint loss or flaking. Frame is sturdy and ready to mount. Note on Canvas Tension: There is a minor, age-appropriate softening of canvas tension along the upper-right curve of the pink vase. It creates a subtle shadow line under direct light, but the canvas fibers and paint remain fully intact with no tearing. (Reflected in listing price). Frame Size: Approx. 17" W × 21" H #CBenoltPainting #SouthwesternWallArt #ImpastoStillLife #VintageNativeBasketPainting
