Appraisal Report
The painting depicts a rural scene of what appears to be grape harvesting or sorting. The style is characteristic of the late 19th or early 20th century, with attention to detail and realistic portrayal of the figures and landscape. The artist's name, J. Brennan, is visible on a plaque, suggesting an established artist. Given the quality of the work, the detail, and the apparent age, similar pieces by established, though not necessarily globally famous, artists from this period and style can fetch values within this range at auction or through private sale, depending on provenance, condition, and the artist's market demand.
