Old Painting

By sgreenie6664@g…, 22 September, 2017
Description

I acquired this painting from an antique shop that was going out of business about 13 years ago

and the proprietor told me that it was included in a container of stuff he bought from Europe years

before. He knew nothing else and as you can see it has considerable damage. It measures 15" x 18" 

and I believe it to be oil on canvas. I have had it in storage for the last 15 years or so and only recently

came across it while moving.

Pictures attached are of front, signature and back of this painting.

Any info you can provide would be appreciated and of course if there is any value there I will sell.

Re: Old Painting

Oil paintings really require a physical examination by a Fine Arts Specialist to determine the vintage and authenticity. I'd suggest contacting a local auctioneer for a referral to an appraiser in your area.
