I can not believe that this painting will still remain a mystery...

Please get involved more actively..

Thanks

I didn't notice until just now that in the first picture there is a signature of some kind and the date 1908.

It's a fine painting that captures the ideal of female beauty of the era (similar to the classic "Gibson Girl" look). Do you suppose she's an actress or a singer from that era?

I have the same thought.. I suppose this is an actress or maybe a noble woman who was painted to be immortalized.. But now we can not understand who she was and what was her occupation..

Get involved People!

maybe not too many people are interested. it´s an item with mainly decorative merrits. artistically it´s not extremely challenging - you get what you see right away.

I'm sure if someone recognized the artist or the sitter they would say something, but overall there's not a lot to go on except for the year.
