<p>[QUOTE=&quot;bosko69, post: 4723567, member: 16283&quot;]JMK was an accomplished Irish genre painter.Places like online &#039;Nice Art Gallery&#039; and &#039;1st Art Gallery.com&#039; are doing oil on canvas copies of his work (not printed canvas with oil/acrylic touches or gel textures),but hand-painted copies on canvass for $300-$400.</p><p>&nbsp;&nbsp; How good the copyist is determines how hard it&#039;ll be to detect if this a copy (or &#039;honest&#039; forgery) and an original.</p><p>&nbsp; &nbsp; A professional should be able to detect the age of the stretchers and canvas and crackle in the varnish and wear spots in the canvas.For 5-10K each it&#039;s probably worth visiting an expert-just make sure they have a good resume&#039;.</p><p>&nbsp;&nbsp; Also-do you have any history/provenance re the pieces ?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
