The back of this painting says “Painted by C. A. Treadwell. Manchester N.H. 1858”. The frame appears to be original but I am not sure.  Somehow this painting has wandered to the Midwest: I purchased it in Minneapolis. It is a large painting and of a very high quality. I would welcome any information people can offer. I am interested in selling the painting and would appreciate a general idea of what I should expect from various markets, eg. Antique stores, consignment stores, galleries, and maybe any advice as to the best route to take for selling this painting.

Re: 1850's Oil Landscape Painting by C. A. Treadwell

As I've said many times on this forum one really cannot appraise original oil paintings from images. Signed paintings from this period can be highly valuable or go for a couple of hundred dollars, but they really need the services of a Fine Arts Appraiser that deals with 19th Century American Art. It would be worth your while to have an Appraiser physically appraise this painting, you are not going to get a proper valuation on a online forum for pieces like this.
