| - The basic painting is a painting from the Animal Crossing series. In City Folk, it is a spotlight item from Tom Nook's Store and is also available in Redd's shop. The painting in real life is called The Blue Boy and was painted in 1770 by Thomas Gainsborough who was from Sudbury, Suffolk, England. It is an oil painting and is currently seen in Huntington Library, San Marino, California. It is considered one of Gainsborough's most well known works, although not much is thoroughly known about it. The subject is believed to be the son of a wealthy merchant. Although the reason for its creation is unknown, it was generally stated by some painters who reported after Gainsborough's death that the artist himself had gotten into a discussion on whether or not a predominant color of blue on an earthy background could result in a fine painting. The Blue Boy demonstrates Gainsborough's ability of balancing cool colors with the contrasting warm ones and was most likely dedicated to another painter, Anthony van Dyck, whom he admired. It has been popularly known due to its outrageous price of about $725,000 (about 9 million dollars in 21st century standards).
