<p>[QUOTE="ValerieK, post: 9426126, member: 7360"]Thank you for bumping it up, it was probably a mistake to post it over the Easter holiday! The top photo shows most of the entire thing, laid out over a single bed, although from a rather awkward angle. The waviness is due to the rolling, but also to the lumpiness of the quilt! Probably an unknown and recent artist. I think it would straighten out if displayed. The other photos show the detail, style and signature, so I suspect if it hasn't been recognised by now it isn't easy to identify. I've had another look for it online, haven't found the same style anywhere, although some other mountain scenes, but not in this fairly impressionistic style or colour scheme. One thing which might be helpful would be a close-up of the signature showing the text to the left and the cartouche, which might be a clue to someone with knowledge. Maybe a photo of the edges and fastenings might help. I will try hard to get it back from the friend and have another go, at least you might get an idea of skill (or lack of it, I'm no judge, I just like it!) Thanks again.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
