Framed Pastel Portrait of a Family Group

This item is an original pastel drawing on paper under glass, depicting a smiling man in a newsboy cap, a young girl, and a child or doll in the foreground. The artwork utilizes a vibrant, folk-art adjacent style with heavy application of wax or oil pastel, showing visible texture and layering. The color palette is warm, emphasizing rosy cheeks and soft highlights. The man wears a grey cap and dark suit, while the young girl has reddish-brown hair and green eyes. The small figure in the foreground wears a distinct red hood. The piece is housed in a contemporary wooden frame featuring a light-toned linen texture or faux-linen finish with a thin gold-toned inner fillet. Measuring approximately 16x20 inches, the artwork appears to be a mid-to-late 20th-century vernacular portrait. Notable condition issues include a thrift store price sticker ($9.99) adhered directly to the glass and minor scuffing on the frame edges. No visible artist signature is discernible in the current viewing. The craftsmanship suggests an amateur or student study, focusing on lighting and expression rather than strict anatomical realism.
