‘The only thought was yes’: Woman finds ‘masterpiece’ at thrift store for $30, then discovers what it’s really worth

A woman from South Carolina was left amazed when she found an incredible oil painting at her local thrift store for just $30. Amanda Lee Smith from Greenville went shopping at a secondhand store right after Christmas ended. She told Newsweek that this is one of the best times to go thrift shopping because people clean out their homes after the holidays.

While walking through the home items section, Smith spotted a beautiful oil painting leaning against the wall. According to Newsweek, the artwork shows a bowl of fruit next to a shiny steel jug. She knew right away that she had to buy it. The painting came in a gold frame and measures about 104 centimeters tall and 147 centimeters wide.
