Elizabeth Gibson believes it because she’s living proof of the old saying. The 53-year-old was walking down the street on Manhattan’s Upper West Side four years ago when something lying in a pile of trash on the street caught her eye. It turned out to be a painting, While she Is far from an art critic, she was sure it didn’t belong there. So she decided to take it home and find out what it was. Gibson took it home and put it on a wall. “It’s huge and it is very brilliant colored, very abstract, but you can make our three figures and it’s just very powerful, it’s overwhelming . she said. Her research led her to a website and a shocking discovery-the painting was a 1970 effort called “Tres Personajes , by a Mexican artist named Rufino Tamayo. He died in 1991 and as so often happens in the art world, the value of his works skyrocketed----now it could be worth $1 million. Experts at auction house Sotheby’s say it was stolen from their warehouse in 1987, ten years after it was purchased by a Huston man for $55,000 as a gift for his wife. The couple had temporarily stored it there while they moved, and expected to get it back. The owners even offered a $15,000 reward. But for years, no one knew what happened to it, until Gibson came walking down that street. The owner is now putting it for bids. Experts expect it to fetch up between $750.000 and $1 million. In addition to an undisclosed percentage of the sale of the painting, Gibson will receive the $15,000 reward. Gibson was just at the right place at the right time. A doorman who saw her retrieve recalls that garbage collectors came by the area just 20 minutes after she found it.
