Use Medina, Washington's own civic record
The City says Medina incorporated in 1955 and identifies its Lake Washington setting, parks, and open spaces as part of the community vision. Its 2024 planning materials describe art sculptures and viewable art at Medina Park. These facts establish the correct Washington geography and a modest civic-art reference; they cannot authenticate a private work, imply City endorsement, or establish local commercial availability.
Create an object file with maker, title, date, medium, support, dimensions, weight, edition information where relevant, condition, and substantiated ownership history. Request current photographs of the face, reverse, edges, labels, signature, frame joints, and hardware. If a listing claims a Medina, Washington artist, collection, park, or residence connection, ask for the catalog, invoice, correspondence, or archival record that demonstrates exactly that relationship.
