<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Mill Cove Treasures, post: 28242, member: 60&quot;]Yes, I just read through that entire thread.&nbsp; Now I&#039;m wondering if he was contracting with an Art Broker here in the USA since that woman&#039;s husband bought the painting in a department store in NY.</p><p><br /></p><p>A few years ago, I had several paintings by an Artist from England.&nbsp; I had a date wrong in his bio and his niece was nice enough to contact me to correct it.&nbsp; She gave me a short bio of her Uncle.&nbsp; He had gone to art school and had shown at the RWA in England.&nbsp; However, like so many other artists, he got a &quot;real job&quot; and painted for pleasure.&nbsp; An art broker from the US saw his work in a Gallery Show and contracted with him to buy his paintings to be sold here in the US at high end retailers. </p><p><br /></p><p>His niece said they wanted scenic landscapes of the local area.&nbsp; That may account for the Barsi paintings being so similar.&nbsp; It was the same time period and he passed away around the same time as Barsi.&nbsp; It could be the reason so many of the Barsi paintings are here.&nbsp;&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>I need to find my notes, I don&#039;t remember if she gave me the name of the broker.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
