Congo Square - 2004 New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Festival Poster

This is a framed limited edition commemorative poster for the 2004 New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Festival, featuring artwork by artist Aziz Diagne. The central image is a colorful, cubist-influenced abstract depiction of faces in profile, rendered in vibrant shades of terra cotta, yellow, blue, and pink against a dark floral-patterned background. Below the artwork, the text 'CONGO SQUARE' is prominently featured in a bold serif font, followed by 'NEW ORLEANS JAZZ & HERITAGE FESTIVAL.' The poster appears to be a multi-colored lithograph or high-quality screen print on heavy paper stock. A signature from the artist, 'Aziz Diagne,' is visible in the lower right corner of the print area, accompanied by the year '2004.' This specific series is highly collectible within the New Orleans art market. The item is professionally housed in an elaborate triple-matted frame, featuring a dark green outer mat with gold inner borders and a decorative gold-toned wooden frame. The visible condition is excellent; the colors remain saturated without apparent light fading, and the paper shows no signs of waving or foxing. The framing adds significant scale and protection, though reflections on the glass indicate standard rather than museum-grade non-reflective glazing. The overall craftsmanship of the print suggests a high-end production typical of the 'Congo Square' sub-series of Jazz Fest posters.
