Bernhard Pothast (Hall 1882-1966 Laren)
08 February 2019
Description

Canvas are measures approximately 27.5" x 21.5". I have zero expertise in this matter but some restoration work may be necessary. The framework has some minor scratching. No major physical damage on the oil surface but it may have had attempted novice home "cleanings" by previous owner who had no idea that it might be of value to others.

What does this mean?

Thank you for submitting your item for appraisal. This appears to be a faded reproduction print on paper after the famous painting by Bernard Jean Corneille Pothast titled "Happy Family". The print is covered with a thick layer of yellowed varnish and the paper itself might have been embossed too to resemble paper ( the original painting was executed in oil on canvas and measures approx. 39 x 31 inches).
The estimate is based on similar prints actually sold at auction. There is no measurement for the sentimental value you might attacht to the item.
