otto ritter von thoren 1828-1889 mainly agricultural pictures. lived in france and austria. anywhere between 2000-9000 pounds. would need to see clearer pic of painting and signature as there are a few von thorens about. that frame is magnificent if it is genuine and you should be considering a specialist art auction.at least let your local auction house look at it.

Please check back later today, as I will be posting newer pictures. The problem I'm having is I have no idea where to take this picture. I live about 20 min. from Chicago, but I cannot find anywhere to take it to be properly appraised. Thank you for your help

Thank you for your help. I have redone the pictures, if you would like to see. For some reason, the last picture keeps coming out blurry. Will keep you updated, and thank you very much for your help.
