Default Can you help me identify this painting?

Hi, during a scene of the film scoop, they quickly refer to a painting and then move on. My wife loves the painting and i am secretly trying to identify it so i can then obtain a copy if possible and surprise her for our forthcoming anniversary.

I have attached a screen shot and would be very grateful for any help you can give,

Regards
Terry

Hallo tezdebs;

I think that this might be a freud. (The English painter).

It looks like his "realist" style, from the choice of model, to the dark background, and way the flesh is painted.

It only my opinion of course.

You could try contacting Christie's or Sothebys.
