    I was visiting a neighbor friend/fellow picker and saw this on his wall. I asked him how much he wanted for it & he told me, "Charlie you'll want to trade me your whole house full of collectibles for this!"
    So I asked him who the artist was - and he didn't know(!) But I guess some friends also commented it & told him it looks like a Dali or Picasso (even though signature doesn't look like either to me), so he told me finally that he'd take $5,000 for it even though it was worth way more.
    Can someone please tell me who the artist is of this piece?
    And just for my benefit, what is the meaning of Jesus floating over 3 graves with His legs cut off?!
    Thank you; I appreciate any help.

    5,000 for that?? Sorry but not my style. Also you stated he didn't know who the artist was but he wants 5,000 for a piece of art he doesn't know about?? I wouldn't even bother with it.

    The three graves are the three crosses on Golgotha. The central one for Jesus, the other two for the two thieves who were crucified on either side of him.
    Jolly bunch, those Romans.:rolleyes:

    1. Go here: https://images.google.com/

    2. Click on the grey/black camera icon that is in the search field.

    3. Select UPLOAD AN IMAGE tab.

    4. Either browse your files to upload, or drag and drop.

    Oh, and use the image where the frame is cropped out. Sometimes reverse search works okay with the frame in the pic, but almost always works best with just the artwork.

    The one you were offered is in terrible condition and would likely cost several hundred to restore.

    Found a AP that sold for only $450 - I'm not buying it, no worries.
    PS - Thanks for the image search directions jivy!
