It seems great pieces of art are always getting lost. A few years ago it was the elderly couple in Wisconsin that had a Van Gogh on their wall and didn't even know it. Then there was the guy who found one of the original copies of the Declaration of Independence in a frame purchased at a garage sale. A few weeks ago someone in New York City did a dumpster dive for an interesting looking painting. Turns out that painting was done by a famous Mexican artist and it fetched over $1,000,000 at a recent auction.
Now this... Imagine you are walking thru LaRosa’s and you find an interesting looking piece of furniture. It is old and very intricate. Could it be some long lost piece of art?
Same thing happened in London but it wasn’t me and it wasn’t LaRosa’s.
