The painting had been in the seller's family since the 1920s

Isn't this picture awful. It sold at auction for £150,000 and was discovered on Antiques Roadshow.

Ugly as it is I wouldn't mind one in my attic.

I think it's OK. I've seen worse at my local painters' guild!

It's not so bad, but I've seen better.

OK? not bad? Are you looking at a different painting. It's flipping hideous.

It looks like a standard old fashioned painting to me.

Would you hang it on your wall?

Maybe when I'm 70.

It's nothing special.
