I just bought a Probst painting, it is very detailed with a lot of religious themes going on. It is about 27″ by 38″, and depicts a woman with long brownish blond hair holding a dark image. There are all types of angels, christ images, and clouds swirling about her. It is signed on the back of the wooden stretcher. Any idea of its value?

Interesting subject! I was researching a painting with an “artist shop” 9 christopher st. Marha K. Phillips tag on the rear, because the artist, like so many signed his/her name worse than Doctors’ do, when I stumbled across all of your writings. Well, Thanks, You all have unknowingly helped me narrow this painting down to New York, and in the 50’s or 60’s. I did find myself wondering why, you, the artist, Probst, referred to your father as Probst, was this for the people asking the questions or was this because you did not know him well. Also, if anyone has some info on my paintings signature, i.e. the daughter of the artist shop owners, heres what is looks like, maybe you are familiar with this particuliar artist, anyway here it is, ” F. itsdlifg” <<<<

Wonderful to hear you read “Sculpture.” Glad you kept “skin” (over “skein”).

Very nice. Still. Sharp at the
creases, still! Have you
inspired some of the fuzzy?
I hope so. Great to see your
continued edge.

Friends, I killed it in a room of seven. Which feels a lot better than blowing it in a room of 40. Much love to Brother Q and the unsinkable Poet Morton. And Su of the Saturn for signing me on.

Can you put me in touch with S Koltnow or get my email to her. I too sold through the Koltnow Gallery and Frame Shop as ‘Al’ and then Wade Reynolds. As a matter of fact I re-designed and re-built the interior for them at one point. After her mother died I could not locate her number, and would love to re-establish contact.
