<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Hjarta, post: 3288391, member: 17416&quot;]Hello!</p><p>I’ve been enjoying reading through the posts on this forum and seeing the great help everyone can be with signatures. I decided to see if you all would be willing to weigh in on a mystery painting I’ve had for several years. I bought it because I liked the poppies and the frame. Once I got it in the mail (from eBay) and looked closer I thought for a hot minute it was by Julian Fałat, the Polish impressionist. On a whim I sent pictures to Sotheby’s and they gave me an auction estimate as if it were a real Fałat and wanted me to send it to NYC for further research. I was all excited and then I realized the l and the t in the signature aren’t quite right. Do you guys think this is someone trying to pass this off as a Fałat and didn’t do their homework? I didn’t pursue the Sotheby’s idea because I didn’t want to sell it and now I’m sure it fake anyway. Long story short, I haven’t thought much about it anymore until reading through these forums and now I just thought I’d see what you guys thought. I included a screenshot of some real Fałat signatures for reference. Also, he mostly did landscapes and portraits but he did do a few flower paintings. Thanks everyone!!</p><p>[ATTACH=full]298450[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]298451[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]298452[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]298453[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]298454[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
