Dear Rebecca,
Thank you for contacting Mearto with your appraisal inquiry. So that I may best assist you, can you please upload a few better images, specifically showing the detail of the painting straight on? This looks a little like a reproduction and I would like to be more confident in that assessment.
Thanks
Rebecca,
Thank you for uploading an additional image. I am still not able to see brushstrokes I would need to see to satisfactorily verify that this is not a reproduction. For that reason, I am assigning it a decorative value of $50-75. If a fine art specialist can verify that it is an original work of art, auction estimates could be high five-figures or low six-figures.
