I have a watercolor painting entitled "Meissen" and dated June 1st,
(18)'99.  It is a picture of a town, which I assume is the town
Meissen, Germany.  It is signed with stylized initials, E M T.  Who is
the artist and what is the value of his paintings?  The painting is
beautiful and is matted with a gold gilt matte board and a gold carved
frame.  It is in excellent condition.
Thank you

Dear Leigh Leonardo, 

First of all, I suggest that you'll post a picture of the painting
online (search google for "free image hosting" to find a place to do
it), and if possible, also show the signature.

In addition, it is possible that answering a question like this is
impossible without investing much time and work. You might want to
