Woman with a basket of fruit
This vibrant oil painting signed “Phildora” depicts a woman in a soft golden-yellow robe, gazing thoughtfully to her right. She wears a large hat adorned with leaves and red berries, possibly suggesting a harvest theme. The expressive brushstrokes and warm palette evoke a sense of rustic elegance and timeless femininity. The frame is richly decorated in a classic style, enhancing the old-world charm of the composition.

Dear Marina Brown,
Thank you for your appraisal submission. The work is a contemporary oil painting on canvas. It is a three-quarter portrait of a young woman in yellow robe with a large floral hat. Her head is turned sideways in profile. It is signed "Phildora" to the lower left corner. From the images provided, the work appears to be in good condition with no visual issues to note. It measures 12 x 18 inches in frame.
There are no known artists of matching signature or style. We were able to find another stylistically similar portrait with the same signature, but no further artist information was provided. Without an artistic attribution, the work's Fair Market Value is estimated based on sales trends of contemporary works of portraiture and condition. The lack of artistic attribution in this case will have a significant impact on the value of the piece. Little information on the sitter or composition will also have a de-valuing effect. We estimate the Fair Market Value of this piece between $0 and $200.
Thank you again for your submission.
Kind regards,
Charlotte B.
