    Hi all. Picked up this etching today and so far no luck on the artist. Its 8x11,and they've got it behind solar glass wich really blurred the lines. When I took it out its far more intricate than I initially thought. Any and all help is gratefully received. DSCN3644.JPG DSCN3638.JPG

    Makanudo There is no such thing as simple.Simple is hard.

    Signature may indicate france de S.D.(from Saint Denis). Guessing.
    Signiture letters - archaic.

    It's a beautiful etching! The lines of the ferns, foliage and bark are excellently done.

    How? Dunno but Mr. Google and I have a close working relationship. Paternal grandma was retired teacher, played me in Scrabble when I was little, and my earliest school report cards mentioned that I liked puzzles-about the only positive thing noted on them, to be honest about it.
