Dear Linda,
Thank you for adding the additional images and dimensions of your oil on canvas painting. It's larger than I had originally assumed.Your painting was done in the early 20th century and depicts a Money Lender, a relatively common historical theme. It does appear the paint is a little compromised with some cracks and surface damage, this will affect the value.
At auction, similar scenes from similar time periods sell in the range of $80USD to $100USD. Please let me know if you have any questions.
Kindest Regards,
Erin-Marie
