A 29-year-old actor goes to a garage sale, finds a painting he likes and buys it for $5. Later he goes on the internet and discovers it is a Joseph Decker and might be worth something, contacts a gallery and when it arrived at the gallery, “I knew immediately it was a great find. It just looked right. I called him and told him it’s probably worth something in the vicinity of a million dollars. We offered it to the National Gallery. They acted quickly. A curator came in. They own two Deckers. They bought it in February.”
