unknown
Dear Kurt,
Thank you for contacting Mearto with your appraisal inquiry. My sincere apologies for the delay with the appraisal.
The presented object appears to be a pastel drawing on paper or cardboard with the measurements of 24 x 11 7/8 inches. The drawing depicts a landscape with a river and a forest. It is signed in the lower right corner with the name "J L Wisk"?. It was made in the late 19th or 20th century.
Comparable objects 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 100 to 250 USD.
This estimate is based on actual recent past recorded auction sales of comparable items. Retail "asking prices" can be higher and may vary.
With kind regards,
George
I added two pictures of signature- best I could get. The earlier appraisal in 1999 indicated the signature was indecipherable.
