<p>[QUOTE="Antiquefab, post: 9575002, member: 79338"]The initials to my eye appear as MD,and also that the first name starts with Ma .With this in mind I suggest that the artist may be Georges Delfosses daughter Madeline [born 1909] and introduced to painting by her father,who also painted a lot of churches.I'm speculating here but maybe she signed it Mad Delfosse as the picture was small and maybe not enough room to put her full name.A lot of her work is watercolour,but some of her later work is signed with initials MD.. Apologies Any Jewelry but the initials IMO just don't add up to it being by Joseph Delfosse,any of his work that I have looked at is initialled with a J and D separate and not conjoined as in this case. I appreciate all the time and effort that all involved have given to try to find the artist,but maybe someone will come up with new information which will unequivocally say which Delfosse actually is the artist.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
