A painting by Scottish Colourist artist FCB Cadell, originally bought in the United States in the 1960s from a charity shop, has sold for almost £190,000. Both outlets report that the work was not recognised as being by Cadell at the time of purchase. The painting’s attribution remains a central part of the story, with both sources stating that it was only identified as a Cadell work recently. The recent recognition has led to the artwork being evaluated and offered for sale, culminating in the near £190,000 price. The reporting highlights the long gap between the original purchase and the later confirmation of the artist’s name, underscoring how artworks can remain unidentified for decades before scholarship or authentication brings them to wider attention. The sale figure is presented as the outcome of the artwork’s updated provenance and authorship information following the recent attribution.
