The large Modernist artwork depicts a self-portrait under the pear trees. Signed on the back side. Gertrude Abercrombie was an American painter based in Chicago. Called the queen of the bohemian artists, Abercrombie was involved in the Chicago jazz scene and was friends with musicians such as Dizzy Gillespie, Charlie Parker, and Sarah Vaughan, whose music inspired her own creative work.
