eugene ehrmann oil painting

[justine093]

A buddy of mine has this painting. It was his great grandmothers, and well, he really needs some cash. Unfortunately it has not been well taken care of and will probably need some restoration.

IT is by Eugene Ehrmann, who was a painter of wallpaper murals in the mid to late 1800s.
this is dated 1859. I can find no record on the internet of any canvassed art by this man. I sell on ebay, but I believe this is over my head. How do I get a rough value on this, and how on earth do I sell it?

Given the possible age, I'd say your best bet would be to take it in to an art appraisal place first. Then, if worth the effort, maybe get it into an antique/art auction house.
