I am trying to identify an oil painting of a young woman in a turban. The artist signature is Marten?? A?O? trim ?? I am uncertain how to upload an image of the painting. The young woman is African but could be from Central Asia, or ? The turban is white with red/orange and green lines. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

It looks like an art print on canvas.

@artstudent,
have you tried a google image search?

you'd need a clean photo of it (i.e without the hand)

@ehBeth,
Yes, I have, unfortunately there is no similar match. I believe, and can be wrong, that this is a print of a painting placed on canvas, alas, I do not know the title of the painting nor the artist. Thak you for the reply!

@artstudent,
I think you are right about it being a print.

It looks like a lot of prints that were bought for points in grocery stores in the 1960's and 70's. I'm going to try to find something tomorrow - I've got an idea for a keyword search.

I've seen a lot of pieces quite like it. Its from the late fifties/early sixties. Its a very nice print - in a good frame $125+/-.
