Lantern Still Life Painting

This painting is available. If you are interested please email at viciniart@hotmail.com.

My wife and I went to an estate sale this past Summer. We found some really cool stuff. In the corner of the garage of this old house in a suburb outside of Detroit, I found this old lantern between some studs. The estate planner didn't even know it was available - I bought it for a few bucks. I thought it would make for a neat still life. The only problem was that when I bagged it up and put it make car, it leaked kerosene. It stunk up the whole car. Heavy price for a $2.00 lantern.
