A vintage original portrait drawing dated 1979 and signed ‘Sembah’. Rendered in pencil and charcoal, the artwork captures a warm and expressive likeness with detailed texture, particularly through the hair and facial features. The drawing reflects the portrait traditions commonly found in Papua New Guinea and Northern Australia during the late 20th century, where artists produced detailed likenesses for local sale or commission. Framed behind glass in a silver-toned frame, this piece is an attractive example of late 1970s regional portrait art.
