<p>[QUOTE=&quot;benbenny007, post: 218273, member: 4194&quot;](sorry for the title, typ-error was to late to edit it, these are early 20th century drawings)</p><p><br /></p><p>Have these classically-inspired graphite drawings which I know not much about. They looked like they have potential and all are so beautifully drawn that I had to purchase these. They were sold to me as graphite drawings of a Russian artist. I researched the signature and found out that the artist is not Russian but Greek (they must have thought it reads Despirov) this name is very common in East Europe).</p><p><br /></p><p>I tried to translate it and think the signature reads Aikaterini Dendrinou or Katerina Dendrinou??.</p><p>Any knowledge about this artist or does somebody have the artist books?</p><p><br /></p><p>Many are fairly big in size, circa 30x22 inches and all professionally sealed framed. Some have see-trough glass with study drawings. Some have a signature but believed all to be from the same artist. </p><p><br /></p><p>Don&#039;t think that there were many female Greek artists in that time period.</p><p><br /></p><p>Any help is welcome</p><p><br /></p><p>pictures say more than words. </p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><a href="http://s37.photobucket.com/user/Ben_Amrani/media/20170221_154825_zpsqa3rbi08.jpg.html"
