I found this painting at a Antique store, which was going out of business. The owner at the time said he had no ideal who made it either and what year, but he do know that it was old. He purchased it from another antique dealer. So it appears to be handed down. Nevertheless, the picture is beautiful and has excellent colors, although its antique. kept in great shape. I gather my information, that if Poe. The painting was done by Samuel Osgood for catching his wife fannie mae & Edgar A. Poe together , he decided to sign his painting F.S. Poes. Then again, if its F.S. Pao, which is an Asian name and I could not find much on the artist, but he does paint excellent work except it was done early 1900's. It also could be last name of Poo, I really can't make it out. This is where I need your help in assisting trying to find the info. Please see the painting and signature.
I am looking to have this chair insured and was wondering if any one can tell me what they think it will appraise for? This chair was hand carved in Africa and was shipped to the US. The chair sat in a place of business for a long time. It was then given to my husband. The chair is solid wood and is very heavy. Please reference the pictures for more details.
