It's a Picture of "Whistler's Mother". It looks just like the ones in the art books. She has the rosey cheeks just like in the picture. There is a poem written below the picure on seperate matting that frames the picture. The poem is titled "What More Can You Say to Your Mother". The picture has areas on it that resemble smoke damage or water damage but it hasn't damaged the picture or poem. I am able to remove the picture from the frame. Its not attached to the glass of the frame. On the back of the picture is a Friday, Aug 17,1917 Toledo, Ohio news paper with a sports page. It looks as though there was a signature on the bottom rt side, but they apparently cut it off to make the picture fit the frame because all there is is the top od a letter there. I bought the picture for $16. at a farm auction in Minot, N.Dak in 1996. I am trying to put the picture on but I don't know how to do it. As soon as I can get it on there, I will add it to this Thank you for your time. Vicki
