As expected, the day's anticipated top lot is an oil on board painting by the acclaimed Canadian folk artist Maud Lewis (1903-1970). Titled Traffic Jam, the 11 ½ inch by 12 inch early and humorous work depicts a cow blocking a car from getting by. It's a bit out of sync with Lewis's repertoire, but is a rare and important example of the breadth of her work (est. $30,000-$35,000).

All estimates quoted are in Canadian dollars.

Miller & Miller Auctions, Ltd. is no stranger to Maud Lewis. Her work has been featured in several past sales, including one held in October 2022, in which eleven paintings by the artist brought a staggering $559,510. Then, in February 2023, six original oil on board paintings and a watercolor and pen on paper by Lewis sold for a combined $198,830 – a grand total of $758,340.

A Georgian period (circa 1820s) Canadian breakfast table in mahogany and figured mahogany attributed to Thomas Nisbet (Saint John, New Brunswick), displaying all the typical features uses by Nesbit, is estimated to reach $12,000-$15,000; while a spectacular, circa 1880 Canadian or American Victorian-era three-piece bedroom suite in the Renaissance Revival style, consisting of a gorgeous bed and two marble-top dressers with mirrors, should also bring $12,000-$15,000.
