Dear Maryanne, 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 or acrylic paint on canvas with 40 x 60 inches measurements. The painting depicts two paddle steamboats on a river. One boat is titled "Mail Line - Natchez". The artwork is signed in the lower left corner with the name Walker. Sadly no additional information for an artist with this name fitting in style and motif is given by reference books and databases. This artwork was made in the last third of the 20th century. Comparable objects were recently offered and sold on the international auction market. This piece is in good condition and no severe damage is visible in the images provided. A fair market estimation would be between 200 to 400 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, Gregory
