<p>[QUOTE="CheersDears, post: 182240, member: 2131"]I had it reframed, so that doesn't help, and there is no signature. The back is just old canvas. The painting is very boggy and very cow-ish, and there are issues -- loss of paint because the canvas bulges and wobbles. Perhaps some "stretchers" would help stabilise it. Good thinking, Houseful. It's hard to know whether a palette knife was used or whether it was just cheap paint week. Looking at the back again, it's perhaps older than I thought, but where, when and by whom is a mystery. Thanks for looking. P.s. It arrived in a ghastly modern frame so there's never been any help from that quarter. [ATTACH=full]50974[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
