Women who hawk their wares in the market balance baskets and trays on their heads with a sinuous grace. Samuel Ashong captures their regal bearing and efficient manner in radiant batik. Dressed in colorful attire, they are bathed in lemon sunlight. Ashong presents the work in a mat board passe-partout, ready for framing.

"Beautiful Batik"
The art is beautiful and will be a great addition to our home. The packaging did protect the batik, but the matting is creased on one entire short end.

"treasure from Africa"
I made one African wall in my hallway. I have been to Africa many times, but I could not return with anything big...I love this picture of the women at the market in West Africa. It has modern and primitive elements as I see it, and it goes well with my other artifacts.
