Unknown
Dear William,
Thank you for contacting Mearto with your appraisal inquiry.
The presented object appears to be a painting made in oil on board with the measurements of 36 x 24 inches. The painting depicts a young man holding a plate with cooked crawfish in front of a restaurant setting with tables and chairs. The painting appears to be signed and dated by the known artists Kehinde WILEY (1977) and dated 1993. Wiley is an American portrait painter and chooses mainly black people for his artworks.
Works by this artist were recently offered and sold on the international auction market.
This piece is in good condition and there is no serious damage visible in the images provided.
A fair market estimation would be between 80.000 to 150.000 USD.
This estimate is based on actual recent past recorded auction sales of comparable items. Retail "asking prices" can be higher and may vary.
An artwork of such high potential value requires further authentication research. This estimate is provided on the condition of authenticity.
With kind regards,
Georg
