Dear Simon,
Thank you for choosing Mearto with your appraisal inquiry.

It depicts an exotic landscape, and it is signed on the lower right edge of the painting;
Sight: 24 h x 20 w inches. It is housed in a beautiful gilt frame and appears to be in excellent condition.
The American artist Lois Mailou Jones has treated several subjects from French, Haitian, and New England landscapes to the sources and issues of African-American culture.
The estimation highlighted in red is based on actual recent past recorded auction sales of comparables. Retail "asking prices" can be higher and vary.
