Canadian History/Lionel Bohemier
Expert: Ron - 9/30/2005
QuestionHave a signed painting by Lionel "Lyon" Bohemier
On back of painting/frame is a short biography stating he was a Canadian artist supposedly very popular and had exhibitions around the world. Cannot find anything on him on the internet here in California. Is there anything you can find on him and maybe if there is any value to this painting?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
AnswerHi Dorothy:
Bohemier was a Canadian artist born in Manaitoba. I believe he passed away in 2002. Hi was 93.
Probably the best way to check on the worth of his paintings is to contact one of the art galleries in Manaitoba. You could try:
