Large oil on canvas Painting accredited to
Gertrude Nanson

The subject of this vibrant, colorful, full of life painting is;

A two handled vase filled with flowers displayed together with a wonderful display of antiques ceramics.

 

I had an Art expert check this lovely large painting for me and we strongly believe the painter of this piece was in fact painted by; Gertrude Nason.

 

This work was so skillfully done, you just can’t take your eyes of it.

Although Gertrude did not sign this work on the canvas,

She did sign, GERTRUDE and dated it, on back of the frame.

The painting measures 24 x36 inches and is in excellent condition.

The thing about Offers and Counter offers.

In case you are thinking about making an offer on this piece please consider this:

Like in most antique stores I can sometimes go to about 10% in giving discounts on items that linger longer on Ebay.

My position as dealer is very compatible I have to keep my prices low as possible. There is not that much room for negotiation.

I list hundreds of items every month. Most of them sell pretty quick usually within a 3 month period. But, I don't know if it will sell.

I often have the “make offer” button placed in the listings, so I do not have to go back every time a listing lingers longer on eBay than usual. It simply is too much work to have to reverse those items.

If I can't honor your offer, please think about this and don't be offended. Just try again, keeping this in mind.
