I bought a claude monet painting from a garage sale years ago for $2. To know if it's worth money I first ned to know if it's a reprodution or the real deal. it's the Claude Monet water lilies 1908 painting.
How do you know if you have a reproduction of a claude monet painting?
Is it an actual painting, or is it a print on paper? Of course, it is not one of the original paintings by Monet (he painted 3 different versions of water lillies). The originals are (1) hanging in the home of a private collector (2) in the Art Institue of Chicago, and (3) in Orangerie, Paris.
You can look very closely at the piece to determine if it is a printed paper made to look like a painting on canvas, or an actual canvas with paint on it. If you do have a canvas with paint on it, it may be worth around $150 - see this website where oil reproductions are sold: http://globalwholesaleart.com/index.php?...
Reply:The price and provenance are major clues.
