Dear Michael,
Thank you for your help and patience.
The presented object appears to be a mid-sized painting made in oil paint on canvas with
unknown measurements. The painting depicts a family of a man, a woman, and a boy. This artwork is monogrammed on the reverse side by Louis VALTAT (1869-1952).
Comparable objects were recently offered and sold on the international auction market.
This piece is in good condition and no severe damage is visible in the images provided.
A fair market estimation would be between 10.000 to 20.000 USD.
This estimate is based on actual recent past recorded auction sales of comparable items. Retail "asking prices" can be higher and may vary.
With kind regards,
Gregory
The valtat family portrait is also in storage. On the front (I cannot recall left or right side) are the initials “L.V.” Initials only, no signature. This was purchased from Wally Findlay gallery in NYC.
