I would have agreed 100% 5 years ago but now smart TVs seem to be taking over! You could just schedule your TVs to automagically display whatever,...
It seems that sleek, large 4K resolution TV screens and monitors now often sell for less than many (maybe most) good quality original oil...
Kraft, it doesn't look to me like your canvas has been relined. Do you see just one canvas layer? It also looks to me like your painting has a...
Do we know if OPs flowers are dogwood flowers? I'm seeing 6 petals. Perhaps they are crabapple flowers instead? Perhaps paintings like hers...
Great point. Still, would someone go through the trouble of painting an unsigned relatively-generic (no offense!) floral scene on a...
There's a patent date. I spent a few minutes searching the USPTO but couldn't find any stretcher keys by "Cutis" around September 1888. If you are...
Ah, your painting has my favorite ADS stretcher keys! Those should date it from between about 1884 and 1917. Connecticut Transforms Aaron Draper...
Neat steel stretcher keys. Do you have a close-up picture of one of the keys? It might help narrow down a date range. I can't see any staples so...
Definitely not profitable at this point! I appreciate the input. Good thing I'm not planning to be a painter because the execution on this is far...
I didn't realize the whomping willow was pollarded until getting this painting. Pollarding - Wikipedia WL, I think the "fort" or castle is on the...
Hey everyone, I'm nearly finished cleaning the ~20"x30" 19th century fort painting I bought a couple months ago. I didn't expect to spend so much...
Tyler, you never know. The artist or a relative may pop up on the forum and ID these. Had luck with the Bruce Bond paintings! Industrial painting...
I believe the last name is "Leaston". Does anyone else see the impression of an "O" between the "T" and "N"? Laura, do you have any info on the...
Do you see any splits or cracks in the figures? Was the storage unit you purchased these from climate controlled? Do you see any mold lines? Are...
Could these be theater/art/movie props? If the statues are lightweight, the plugs are probably for the purpose of weighting. I'd imagine they...
Two interesting things to me here: 1. The lady's face appears much "sharper" than the rest of the scene. Also, her face seems somewhat distorted,...
A couple weeks ago I purchased a neat 19th century winter scene in oil. Seller just bought from an estate and believed it was unsigned. The...
Looks like a wonderful pastel! I bought an Andrew Gunderson and had it shipped in the frame. Unfortunately, mine wasn't originally framed with...
I doubt it's a Jan Brueghel since the detail isn't there. Also probably not nearly as old. The nail heads are round and fairly consistent so...
Perhaps she would have for a family member like one of her children?
