How do you find the value of a painting titled Bridge in Paris by R Snapper?

Info about SNAPPERI have a very large framed painting, that looks like a street & canal scene from Amsterdam, that has been painted by a PARIS SNAPPER. (Or that is what his name appears to be on the painting.) I obtained it from a deceased relative about 9 years ago. He possibly had it for more then 20 or 30 years prior to that. I am happy to swap pics to see if it is possibly the same artist. I have done a Goggle search that drew a blank.

I don't have an answer to your question, but I am pretty sure I have the same painting. I picked it up at an acution for a few dollars, so please let me know if you find out anything.

Thanks,

Re: R. Snapper: I have a painting of his (purchased in 1972) that is a Venetian Scene. It is signed VENICE over SNAPPER. Mr R. Snapper was born in 1907 in Woerden, the Netherlands. He worked in Paris and Switzerland from 1929 to 1931 when he moved to Amsterdam. He was known for his views of cities all over Europe. (This information is from a card on the back of the painting when I bought it). I, too, am interested in the value of my painting (12" X 30" hi). I assume Mr. Snapper is deceased.

****NEW UPDATE***OCT 28,2008****-- they are appraisers in the Netherlands and would provide a verbal appraisal for i think 60 euros. written ones are more expensive. i too own a snapper entitled'Amsterdam' but cannot afford the appraisal. maybe we can work together. my painting is 33inches by 55inches NEW UPDATE******

Are there any auditions for modeling in Chicago?

Auditions are for actors. For modeling, there are castings and go-sees. In Chicago, your best bet is to submit non professional pictures to modeling agencies in Chicago. If they like your look you will be offered a modeling contract. From there your agency will seek out castings and go-sees for you to attend in the hopes of booking modeling work. However, if you don't have an agent, getting access to such castings will be difficult, unless you are a freelance model, which means you act as your own agency and find your own work. Many freelance models find modeling castings through sites like craigslist or online modeling communities.

Why was there so many railroad lines that ran from and to Chicago Illinois in the 1800s?

It was the easiest place to get goods west in the America's before trains do to the possible passage by water from New York. As Chicago became a booming port city for the western expansion the population for the city rose very quickly making it a thriving city in the 1800's. As railways became more popular goods started being shipped via trains and with Chicago already importing goods to middle America by water it was an ideal location to build railroads to distribute out these goods through the country side.
