Mark Lawson Antiques News: Alfred Thompson Bricher Seascape Painting
I was called down to a family home in Guilderland one day to look at a painting. The elderly man and woman had been shipped this very large piece in a box when a distant relation died 30 years before. They promptly put it in the garage behind an old refrigerator and left it there. It needed cleaning badly, but was still identifiable as a superb Hudson River School painting by Alfred Thompson Bricher. We provided proper conservation and cleaning and were able to get the happy family $130,000 for this beautiful ocean vista of Grand Manan Island off the coast of Maine. -ML
