Woman with Grapes, Framed

Gouache painting on paper by J. Bodin, signed lower left and annotated “F.A.P.” for the Federal Art Project. The scene depicts a red-haired woman standing in a modest domestic interior, holding a small bowl of grapes. Stylized furniture and tonal contrasts evoke the quiet realism often associated with WPA-era work. The composition combines muted color fields with soft figural handling and an expressive, unfinished edge. Framed under glass in a vintage black wood frame. Wired on the back for hanging.
