I also have a painting by this artist that is a different pose of a man lighting a cigarette that my father purchased in the last 50's when we were stationed in La Paz, Bolivia. I had a second painting of a different pose of a woman with a candle, but was damaged and it disappeared years ago. I am ready to sell my painting and also wondered the value. Did you find out anything or get any interest? LCaputo
