Hello Tara, Thank you very much for submitting your item for an online appraisal and for your patience. The presented object appears to be an oil on canvas print reproduction of Thomas Gainsborough's painting, "The Blue Boy." It measures 20 x 24 inches, is framed and looks to be in good condition. The original work by Gainsborough resides in the permanent collection of The Huntington Library, Art Museum and Botanical Gardens in San Marino, California. It's a highly recognizable image that has been copied and reproduced thousands of times since it was first painted by the artist in 1770. Though it is somewhat difficult to confirm through the images provided, it does appear that your reproduction is a print laid on canvas. This gives it a more "authentic" decorative quality, but unfortunately, doesn't make much of an impact on the fair market value, which I would estimate between $50 and $100. Retail and asking prices vary. Thank you again and have a wonderful day! Kind regards, Anne
