At least for a woman in New Hampshire who uncovered an unassuming dusty painting, which experts have determined to be an original work by American painter and illustrator, N.C. Wyeth. A master of light and color, Wyeth is best known for her depictions of the American West, particularly in her works, <em>The Last of the Mohicans<\/em> (1826) and <em>Treasure Island<\/em> (1883). <\/p>\n<p>The undisclosed buyer purchased the artwork for a mere $4 USD at a Savers store and actually forgot she owned it until recently cleaning up the house. Upon closer inspection, she enlisted the help of a Maine arts conservator, Lauren Lewis, who identified the significance of the piece. &#8220;It&#8217;s everybody&#8217;s dream,&#8221; noted Lewis, in regards to finding a masterpiece by humble means. <\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s not entirely clear how the painting ended up at Savers, nor is it evident what the work referred to. However, Lewis believes that Wyeth had created the painting for Helen Hunt Jackson\u2019s 1939 novel, <em>Ramona<\/em>, which recounts the story of a fictional woman of Scottish and Native American background, who is orphaned after the Mexican-American War. <\/p>\n<p>Bonhams Skinner has estimated that the artwork is expected to fetch roughly $150,000 to 250,000 USD when it hits auction on September 19. &#8220;I do hope that it remains in a collection that will be willing to lend it \u2014 or even give it to a museum,&#8221; Lewis added.<\/p>\n<p>For more on art, check out our must-see booths at Frieze Seoul 2023.<br \/>\nSource: <a href=\"https:\/\/hypebeast.com\/2023\/9\/nc-wyeth-painting-bought-thrift-store-bonhams\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Read Full Article<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Another thrift store, another come up.
