A middle-aged couple in a suburb of Milwaukee, Wisconsin, asked an art
prospector to appraise a painting in their home. While he was there, he
examined another painting that the couple had thought was a
reproduction of a work by Van Gogh. It turned out to be an 1886
original. On March 10, 1991, the painting Still Life with Flowers sold
at auction for $1.4m (US).
