You never know what you'll find on a thrift store shopping excursion.
A drawing purchased at a Habitat for Humanity thrift store in Queens, N.Y., turned out to be an original work by a master of Expressionist art.
The pencil drawing, which depicts a nude female reclining on her back, bears several chracteristics that make it consistent with the work of Egon Schiele, a major figurative painter of the early 20th century who lived in Austria. Those traits include the paper, the type of pencil and the style of the drawing itself, according to Smithsonian.com.
