<p>[QUOTE="moreotherstuff, post: 9619007, member: 56"]It's a picture of Saint Luke, one of the patron saints of artists, and the iconography is correct in that the saint is often shown painting images of Mary. Given the angularity of the lines, 1952 is not out of line for a date, but I would have guessed the other end of the '50s. Looks to be painted in gouache. I would guess the signature on the note is whoever wrote the note, not the artist.</p><p><br /></p><p>How big is it?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
