Need help to identify an old oil
Long story short, I found this old oil painting at an estate sale and need to identify it. It's on canvas and it looks from the aging on the back of the canvas and frame it must be 100 years or older.
Signed but difficult to make out. If anyone can make out the signature or recomend an appraiser familar with Europeon art please contact me. Thanks Tim / Canada |

Lake Como, Italy perhaps. No luck trying to decipher that sig.
Brightened it up a bit. |

Thanks for the info............... I thought it may be Europeon because the it came from the estate of an Italian man here in Canada. I took some more pics of the signature and the back. If you don't know and can put me in touch with an qualified appraiser who specilizes in Italian paintings that would be great. This will better help me make a decision as to what to do with it. I would like to keep it but recently found a oil by a Canadian artist I plan to hang instead.Small apartment and not much room. |
