Thank you to PBS, Antiques Roadshow, the collector and Susan Kime of St. Louis’ Link Auction Galleries for giving an accurate assessment for this piece. For more information about Rodrigue’s paintings from this era visit, Before the Blue Dog: The Cajuns of George Rodrigue and Their Relevance.
Additionally, it appears that the participants would have benefited from some assistance in their discussion regarding the origins of Rodrigue’s Blue Dog series prior to the filming of this segment (or, possibly the accurate origin story was cut for time). In any event, for the authentic narrative, delve into our essay, Blue Dog: How a Cajun Legend Became a Pop Icon.
