We took this picture to a local dealer who took a look at it with a loupe. We thought maybe it was a litho. Dealer advised this was a hand painted picture. There is slight blue and red coloring in the picture. The people have very bright blue eyes very stiking. The Dealer advised us to take it to a arts museum to determine its origin. The signature is in the upper right hand corner and looks like pencil we can not make it out completely. What we can see is ......lau

A-7
The dealer also advised we need to get the wood off the back of the pic as it is possibly pulling the color out of the picture.
