Egyptian Papyrus Painting 3 Geese, S. Gharib artist

By cagney22, 6 September, 2009
Description

I know nothing of this picture. I have seen reproductions, but this one has the gold paint that the others do not. It is signed on uncut papyrus S. Gharib. There is a slight yellowing to the paper, but the painting colors are very bright. On black mat with aok frame. Three geese, only the first big gold one is eating. Followed by 2 other blue, gold and red geese.
There was a label on the back which indicates professional framing, but it is missing.

Re: Egyptian Papyrus Painting 3 Geese, S. Gharib artist

I have a painting I am assuming is by the same artist. The signature is nearly identical, the difference being the zag attatched to the B crosses above the name. Also painted on papyrus. The only information I have is that it had been stored for approximately 15 years, and I do not know where or when the previous owner aquired it. It is an egyptian painting of Ra and what looks to be a noble, including heiroglyphs.
