Dear Robbi,
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 32 x 53 inches. The painting depicts a Native American settlement. It is signed by Jake Herrman who painted this artwork in the style of Naïve art. It is dated 1957.
This piece is in good condition and there are no serious damages visible.
An estimation would be between 300 to 500 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

I want to know what artwork that you used to compare? You stated, This estimation is based on actual recent past recorded auction sales of comparables" I would like to know what artwork you are comparing this to.
You are not taking into effect the American History of this folk art painting or the importance of the artist and the role he played in the Sioux nation.
Dear Robbi,
The comparable is my experience with similar paintings by not listed artist. Sadly such important aspects of the American History do not play a role by an art market-based estimation.
With kind regards,
Georg
I would like to know what comps you used to come to your conclusion, please.
