Marked USM on the side

Renowned as a designer

with more than a few dings and some paint loss

I love him just sitting around among a collection of other brass boxes

a form traditional to Tajikistan

Surreal Tempera or Gouache on Paper Painting with Two Figures tin serving dish Marked USM on the sideI haven't been able to figure out the artist behind this painting, which is signed with what appears to be AAConglo on the shoulder of the larger figure (possible AA are the initials of the artist and Conglo is the title of the painting, but I'm not sure.) In any case, I really love it, perhaps most of all this orange figure in the foreground apparently being spewed into existence by the larger! and also these great aqua X's across the unpainted chest
