Dear Joseph,
Thank you for contacting Mearto with your appraisal inquiry.
This is a traditional oil painting of a valley view with birch trees in the foreground. It measures 20" x 24" (sight), and 26" x 31" (framed). It is signed on lower right "S. Jenkins". The condition is excellent overall.
Unfortunately, after searching for this artist, I am sorry to say that I could not find any similar artist's signature in our records. It seems to me that an obscure artist has executed the painting that you own.
Therefore, this is reflected in the estimate in red that appears above. The subject work's size and composition were also taken into consideration when determining these figures.
Best regards,
Karine
