Dear Inghe,
Thank you for the additional information and your patience. The presented object is a painting made in oil color on canvas with the measurements of 24 x 20 inches. It depicts the portrait of a man with a white hat and jacket. The painting is signed in the right corner with Francesca Barbara, dated 1951 and shows the musician Cliff Perkins. Francesca Barbara Frittelli was represented by the FYR ARTE CONTEMPORANEA gallery. Sadly her paintings don´ t appear on the auction market. We have to differentiate between a gallery price, which is much higher, then a price which an artwork could score in an open market situation like in an auction.
A base auction estimate would be 300 to 600 EUR.
This estimation is based on actual recent past recorded auction sales of comparables. Retail "asking prices" can be higher and vary.
With best regards,
Georg
she was born in Florence, Italy in 1925. She had shows mostly in Italy in Florence , the most recent in a gallery called FYR.
