GOOSsENS PAINTINGS FOR SALE
Goossens was a prolific and talented artist. However, since many of his paintings were commissioned for portrait art, not many have made their way onto the art market.
Some of the paintings remained in John's personal collection until after his passing in 1968. Not long aftwards, in the early 1970s, they were then sold by his family. A number of those artworks (including the landscapes shown in this story) are available for purchase through the Ruby Lane online shop of Ahmeek Antiques and Decorative Arts (Ahmeek, MI).
