This watercolor was painted circa 1940ish in St. John, NB by an artist in his early years Jack Weldon Humphrey. Apparently he became quite renowned. The scene is overlooking the Bay if Fundy. I can not fully make out the signature.
An aunt who had it in her house until her death
Dear Bob,
Thank you for your request. The presented object is a watercolor on paper with unknown measurements. It depicts a landscape with houses at a lake and a mountainside in the background. It is signed with a pencil by Jack Weldon HUMPHREY (1901-1967).
This piece is in good condition and there are no serious damages visible.
An estimation would be between 500 to 1000 USD.
This estimation is based on actual recent past recorded auction sales of comparables. Retail "asking prices" can be higher and vary.
With best regards,
Georg
