Description
I found this framed landscape painting this afternoon around 4:15 pm on the sidewalk outside the Starbucks on Main Street in Yreka, Siskiyou County. It's a 16x20 inch acrylic painting of a snowy Mount Shasta with pine trees, set in a black frame with a thin gold inner edge. The back has a small label and a signature in the bottom-right corner that reads 'L. Chen 2019'. The frame has a few light scrapes, but the painting itself looks clean and vibrant. If this is someone’s piece, I hope it finds its way back to its owner—art like this deserves a home.

How to safely return this item
A short checklist to protect you and the item during the handoff.
Verify the owner before handing it back
- Ask the claimant for a specific identifying detail before confirming.
- If valuable, ask for a photo with matching ID, receipt, or original packaging.
- Never post the precise location publicly. Share it only with a verified owner.
- Do not accept payment to return it. That is a red flag for a scam claim.
Meet in a safe, public place
- Police stations, café entrances, transport hubs, and shop foyers all work.
- Meet during daylight hours where there is CCTV and foot traffic.
- Avoid private homes, car parks at night, or isolated locations.
Bring someone with you
- Tell a friend or family member where you are meeting and when.
- Share your live location with them during the handoff.
- For high-value items, consider contacting your local police station for advice first.
Keep communication on lostandfound.io
- Use the in-app message thread so there is a record if something goes wrong.
- Do not move to WhatsApp, SMS, or email until you have exchanged a verifying detail.
- Never share bank details, government ID numbers, or copies of your ID.
