$650 million Euro to fix ONE building that is primarily for Christians.

Imagine what that could do for PEOPLE.

Religion is stupid.

I don't mean to sound like I'm trying to capitalize on a tragic event, and it's extremely unlikely that I would sell them now anyhow unless they went for some insane amount of money, but I happen to have in my possession two pieces of painted art of Notre Dame. One of the inside, and one of the outside of the building.

Both of these were acquired from my great aunt when she passed. I don't exactly know how much money she had, but her home had several tennis courts on it, she lived down the street from Mr. T and I met John Paxon at her funeral because she baby sat for him on occasion. (Maybe house sat... I don't remember). The house was passed down to her when my great grandmother died.

Before they moved, my parents gave the one to me because of the inside because they knew I always liked it as a kid. My step dad then pulled me aside one day and told me he wanted to have the other one. Of all the artwork they had, it was the one that their realtor wanted. When he looked at the back of it, it still had a price tag from Marshall Fields for $1,480, and since she prided herself on only buying the finest things for her home, it can be assumed that this was back in the days when Marshall Fields was strictly a well-to-do destination Downtown.

Any ideas how I could find out more about these pieces?

So I snapped a few pics. Sorry for the low quality. I don't have a smart phone and my digital camera is ancient. I couldn't do much about the flash either.

They're beautiful, to be sure, but I don't know anything about art. For all I know they're just fancy reprints of some famous pieces you might recognize and not have hardly any value at all.

Sadly, the frame is broken on the bottom left corner of the second one. That was the one I was told I was getting years ago because I loved it as a kid. The first one is the one I got right before the move because the realtor was looking for another freebie and that's the only piece out of all the artwork they had that she seemed to want.

They don't really go with my bachelor motif, especially with those frames.

EDITED TO ADD: Oh... lol. I mentioned how men don't buy window dressings in the other thread. You might notice the black garbage bag that has been hanging in the window since I remodeled the room around 7 years ago. It keeps the light out when you need to sleep days for the night shift, and you can't beat the price. :)

Do Right, Be Right. :)
