Art Notes
I can’t think of a better place to celebrate our Savior’s birth than Yosemite Valley, one of God’s most awesome creations. The Ahwahnee Hotel is located in the heart of the valley and has been there for nearly one hundread years.

We have a Thomas Kindade Christmas at the Ahwahnee in its original frame. It was given to us by Thomas Kinkade around 1991 or 1992. It has 6/100 pp under his signature. Is it worth hanging on to this piece? He was living in San Jose CA at that time and my husband did some work for him and he gave us the picture. Thank you.
Hello Carole,
What a wonderful gift to have received from Thom! We do not offer appraisal services here. It would be up to you to decide is the piece worth hanging on to. A quick way to check the value of your painting is to go onto our website http://www.thomaskinkade.com and search for the title, size, and edition of your painting. Use the search feature in the upper left hand corner of the website, it is a green colored box that says search if you are using a computer. If you are using a mobile device, look for the three lines and click on them. This will bring up the search feature. Type in your image name. If your exact image comes up, click into it like you want to purchase it today. Select the same size, edition and frame on your piece to get a general idea of value. If you do not find your exact piece, it has sold out. You can then select another image as long as you select the same size, edition and frame. Again, this will give you a general idea of value for your piece.
If you need a formal appraisal for your insurance company, there are many factors that are part of an art appraisal especially when a painting is sold out, including edition, size, frame choice, condition, image availability, and the local art market. The best source for assistance in obtaining a third-party appraisal is a local appraisal firm in your area. Local appraising firms understand the secondary art market in your region and have the ability to give you the best estimate of value for your Thomas Kinkade Limited Edition Artwork.
