The over mantel painting set within the wall paneling was so thoroughly smoke stained (and sported a poker hole!) that it was at first considered nothing of value. But I hauled it up to a friend that does restoration work for the Metropolitan Museum and for New York dealers. I strolled into his upper eastside studio with the painting in a trash bag to protect it from the drizzle. He threw on his loop, cleaned some dust and ���aahed��� and ���oohed��� a bit before informing me that not only was it by a good Dutch master, von Storck, but that it was worth a pretty penny. Once cleaned and hole patched, it found its way back to Blue Ridge Farm. HYLAND
