An Elf, circa 1886

Recently found in a previously unknown closet at the Louver Art Gallery in Paris, Illinois. Allegedly painted by the no where famous Mike L. Angelo shortly after his arrival in that city. As the story goes, he had no money to pay his room and board, so he painted this portrait of his Landlords son, hoping she would take it in lieu of the rent. Instead, she locked his room, and took the board across his backside and kicked his a$$ out. But that did not stop her from keeping the portrait and displaying it in her living room. Meanwhile, a rejected and depressed Angelo promised never to paint again. Thank God for all art lovers everywhere, he kept that promise. VALUE: PRICELESS (as nobody wants it).
