Expressionist Painting of Two Women with Pots on Their Heads, "Pot Sellers"

Walking with large wrapped pots atop their heads, two African women make their way to the market in this painting from Ghana. Benjamin Sebi Amenortey works in an expressionist style, depicting his subjects with long, exaggerated forms and a surreal color palette. He says, "Pots were used in the olden days for cooking, storing water, and may things."
