Dear Laura, Thank you for contacting Mearto with your appraisal inquiry. My sincere apologies for the delay with the appraisal. The presented object appears to be a painting made in oil paint on canvas with measurements of 20 x 18 inches. The painting depicts on the main side probably a Navajo tribesman and on the other side the portrait of men. The signature is not clearly readable and this painting was made in the 1920s or 1930s. Sadly no additional information for an artist with this name fitting in style and motif is given by reference books and databases. Comparable objects were recently offered and sold on the international auction market. This piece is in medium condition and no severe damage is visible in the images provided. A fair market estimation would be between 50 to 100 USD. This estimate is based on actual recent past recorded auction sales of comparable items. Retail "asking prices" can be higher and may vary. With kind regards, George
