+1.

I was there recently and was thinking how great a place it is. The kids really loved it.
That's sad. Anyone know why? Did the rent go up a lot of something?
from what I heard the main reason it was around was a chesed the owner did for someone to have a job and support the family

Framed or unframed?

https://yaelivogel.com/ has nice stuff in that range (depending on size - look at the 'print' options) but then framing is separate and can cost as much as the painting.
