Painting by H. B. Poesiat Original oil on canvas C. 1981, Mokum “La Sonnambula” In a carved wood frame Canvas is 24x30in Frame is 35x40
Acquired by a family friend who passed. He was an Art professor at U of Toronto. I am unsure of any previous owners or exhibitions. I do know that H. B. Poesiat is on Canada’s list of artists and that he passed in 2001or 2002.
Dear Ruth,
Thank you for contacting Mearto with your appraisal inquiry. The presented object appears to be a painting made in oil or acrylic paint on canvas with the measurements of 24 x 30 inches. The painting depicts surrealistic motifs in front of a theater scenery. The painting is signed by Henry Poeisat and titled "La Sonnabula".
This piece is in good condition and there are no serious damages visible.
An estimation would be between 300 to 600 USD.
This estimation is based on actual recent past recorded auction sales of comparables. Retail "asking prices" can be higher and vary.
With kind regards,
Georg
