This is an amateur painting.

The seller's description:
Original 1959 Karel Appel Abstract Painting ~COBRA~

Being offered is an original painting by the Dutch abstract-expressionist painter, Karrel Appel. Medium: acrylic on hand-stretched canvas. Signed "Appel" and dated '59, bottom, left-hand corner. Original, burled walnut frame w/ inner abstract, gold trim. Without the frame, this painting measures 20 inches across by 16 inches high. I have provided a photo of the painting out of the frame; see image.. Brief history: this painting was purchased recently at an estate sale in High Point, North Carolina. The auctioneer apparently had no idea what he had in this painting, and neither did the owner or other bidders, for that matter.. So, it was obtained for a very reasonable price. Now, I have studied this painting carefully, and in my honest opinion it appears to be vintage/original, and by the hand of Karel Appel. Look at the images, carefully.. The art is typical of the work produced by Appel in the era.. The paint looks older, the canvas and frame are of the right period, and the signature is correct. Again, look at all the images.. My impression of this painting, is that Appel was trying to capture a beach scene with this piece, whereby a young, beautiful girl figure(at the far left of the painting..) is being eagerly chased by a sexual pervert(please excuse the pun..) and his side-kick.. ..and all are being followed by a red phalic symbol to the far right, who I believe represents the devil. The deviant and his friend seem to be kicking up water(look at the blue paint..) as does the girl, and some sea critters have apparently squirted out from underneath the deviant. Sun and clouds in the background. That's my take on this painting, but you are welcome to make up your own mind.. I think it's worth mentioning, at this time, that the frame is not only vintage, but of the superior quality one would expect to find an original Appel painting in.. Beautiful grain, look closely.. Condition of painting: a couple of light fleabites and scratches, and expected fading due to age/elements/etc. Condition of frame: excellent. Someone obviously took very good care of this painting.. Ok, so why am I listing this painting on Ebay with such a low opening bid($5000) and no reserve, and not letting some big auction house sell it for me? Simple: auctions like Sothebys and Christies, or any fine auction house, for that matter, will not accept any painting without an original provenance and coa(certificate of authenticity) Trust me, I've already tried this, before, with no success. So, I've listed the painting on Ebay, and you could possibly own an original painting by Karel Appel, for a small fraction of what it may actually be worth.. Again, look at what you would be getting, here, and consider the possibilities.. Lovely painting... Good luck, and email me with any questions..

Artfakes.dk:
This painting is far away in the style of the famous Cobra painter Karel Appel.
