large old Asian water color

By Kevin V, 30 September, 2012
Description

I bought this out of an old mansion, the woman that lived there was 93 and told me she remembers this painting hanging in the living room back in the 30's, it very large about 4 feet by 3 feet including frame, the artist sounds american or english (Lynne Hugh) can't find any info on the artist. Any one see any others like this, seems to be painted on some kind of cardboard stock. The frame has chipping and seems to be black lacquer. Just would like to know if it's worth more than I paid and if so, where to sell it.

                                                      Thanks

Re: large old Asian water color

Have you taken this to a local art dealer to confirm that it is not a print? Is there a dot matrix pattern on the artwork?

Hi,

Definately paint, it was checked by a local art dealer, but he does not know anything about it, he told me that it was a water color on cardboard stock.

Holy cow!  I have a similar painting by the same artist!  I would love to know who she was, where it came from, when it was painted & how much it might be worth. 

I can tell you this much:  I paid $30.00 for mine & I once saw the same painting in an antique shop selling for $350.00!

I love it & will never sell it, but it would be nice to know more about it.

Let's keep each other in the loop on this, OK?
