[QUOTE="Gianluca72, post: 1339162, member: 8309"]Hello friends, in a batch of various paintings that I won at the beginning of 2019 at the Pirone auction house in Rome, there was this curious picture, it seems to me a watercolor on paper. I hadn't given it much importance, but over time, it has increasingly caught my eyes, until I came here to you :-) It intrigues me a lot because I don't understand who is represented, a carnival mask? Then there are other interesting factors: some "technical notes" in pen, and two signatures, one on the top right, and one on the left. Perhaps one represents the name of the represented character and one is that of the author, I do not know. I seem to notice some pencil and pen strokes superimposed on the pencil, but I'm not sure. Could it be a sketch, a technical draft of a future painting project? On the back, from the state of the frame and from the oxidation of the nails, it seems to me that it is an "old" work, but I could not go back to the date. In short, there are some interesting things, and I would like to share all this with you in order to take advantage of your expertise and receive your points of view in this regard. Thank you all for your time.
