Lost and found, by Elenor Perry-Smith clearly states how rare and priceless treasures can be found unexpectedly, especially expensive old paintings.
Lost and found by Elenor Perry-Smith describes to me how one may not really recognize an old painting until they get a closer look because it may seem as if it doesn't have much value to it.
