🧑‍🎨 About the Artist: Ronald P. Mack

As of this writing, there are no widely documented records of Ronald P. Mack in major art price databases such as AskART, ArtNet, or mutualart.com. This suggests that Mack may have been a regional or emerging artist, likely active in local exhibitions, art shows, or small galleries.

The signature, labeling, and painting quality suggest this was a professionally exhibited piece, possibly part of a curated group show or private studio sale.

🎨 Artistic Details

  • Subject: Still life with three copper or ceramic vessels (hence "The Trio") resting on a vivid blue draped cloth, contrasted by delicate baby’s breath flowers
  • Technique: Strong use of color, depth, and light reflection on vessels; realistic drapery folds show skill and classical training
  • Palette: Cool and warm tones balanced skillfully — cobalt blues, copper, earth tones

💰 Current Estimated Value (2025)

Context

Estimated Value

Local gallery or estate sale

$300–$500 USD

Private sale (with provenance)

$400–$600 USD

Regional art auction (if artist gains exposure)

$500–$750 USD

 

Your price of $450 aligns very well with fair market value for a high-quality, original mid-sized oil painting by a regional artist in excellent condition.

🧾 Notes for Collectors:

  • If you are holding onto this piece for investment, keep the back label intact, and consider documenting any provenance (where it was purchased, event, or show).
  • This work is a great candidate for home or office décor, especially in traditional, transitional, or vintage-styled interiors.

🧠 Recommendation

A professional appraisal is not necessary at this time unless:

  • You're planning to insure a collection
  • You believe the artist has gained wider recognition
  • You want to list the work in a formal gallery or auction catalog
