Russian painter oil painting forest scene on canvass
40 inches high, 60 inches wide, 1/4 inch thick, oil painting on canvass, oil not thick but "thin", good condition, frame small around edges
my mother (an artist) and father bought it in Brooklyn NY in the 1960s for $500 (if I rcall correct) and said it was made by a well known Russian painter and was very valuable
Inherited
Yes
Dear Robert,
Thank you for the additional images/ information and your patience.
Sadly regarding technical problems, the images and messages were not displayed. I apologize for the delay of the appraisal.
The presented object appears to be a painting made in oil paint on canvas with the measurements of 40 x 60 inches. The painting depicts a forest scene with two girls. The painting is signed in the right lower corner in Cyrillic letters with the name "N. Schischkin" or "I. Schischkin". Behind the signature is dating which could be interpreted as 1882 and not 1832. This painting would not fit stylistically to a painting made in 1832. The motif is comparable with works of the Russian artist Ivan Ivanovitch SHISHKIN (1832-1898). This painting appears weaker in its composition and the depiction itself to known works of Ivan Ivanovitch SHISHKIN (1832-1898). There are many forgeries of works of this artist circulating on the art market.
Artworks of this artist were recently offered and sold on the international and national auction market.
This piece is in good condition and there are no serious damages visible.
An estimation would be between 50.000 to 100.000 USD.
This estimation is based on actual recent past recorded auction sales of comparables. Retail "asking prices" can be higher and vary.
Because of the differences to ensured works and the high potential value this artwork requires further authentication research. This estimate is provided on the condition of authenticity.
With kind regards,
Georg

I hope these pictures help. 2 are close ups of signature. I hope you can read the signature and determine who the painter is. 1832 seems to be the date. 2 girls in painting. One red up front and one obscure in woods
