Had an exchange with someone on eBay last night regarding their clearly fake VT Landscape selling at $1250.
They responded in a very polite manner, and asked why I felt it is a fake. It was a good exchange, but I see it’s still listed for sale.
Be careful out there.

Curious why anyone would post a statement like this with no images or link...
I will guess this is the item and do some evening research...

Listed one on the left, genuine RR4 on the right:
Check out lot #50047 in the upcoming Heritage auction 60486.

I thought this thread was about a painting.
maybe we have a side hustle
are we sure of the artist here?
Edge image from the seller:
i saw thatt but don't do old copper
all the pics seem to show a seam
I assume that seam indicates that it's an electrotype so it probably has some collector value.

But certainly not $1250.00 IMHO!
It’s not made from genuine dies. In my eyes it’s a novelty item.
With that seam, it may be a cast copy and the seam is where the two halves of the mold meet.

Listing seems to be gone...
The mold was not made from genuine dies.
Listing removed by eBay.
That's what he said
