    Hi, thank you everyone for your enjoyable posts and info, I am new to this site and have learned a lot from the group. Purchased this oil on canvas from goodwill in Augusta , Ga. This piece is unsigned and stapled to the stretchers(post 1950’s then?)

    What an interesting face. Lovely nose and that charming overbite. But are those scratches down her cheek? 1950s hair and clothing. It's very nicely done. Could well be the work of a trained local (or regional) portrait painter who worked with sophisticated patrons.

    Not to be facetious, the value is what someone will pay for it. Unknown artist, unknown (adult) sitter, unknown location and damaged. None of that helps with resale.

    I was silly and should have known better to ask for value. I understand Debora, and thanks again for your help not just in my thread but the in many threads you post comment.
