[QUOTE="TT Antique, post: 4013664, member: 2653"]That is an interesting find! The Chagall if authentic could be an original lithograph. Try to take the Chagall out of its frame and see the boarders for any limited edition numbering and also the back of the print. Also try to search on the internet for any online Catalogue raisonné of his works . Do the same for Dali etching. The thing is ,the prints of these two artists as well as Picasso have been the target of enterprising forgers in the last century. Hence consider it a project to verify their authenticity. Maybe that is why potential works and prints by these famous artists have been referred to as 'headache art' :)..Before taking it to somewhere else try to do you your homework first to make a case for or against your prints. One more thing for Dali prints there is one good tip that David Rudd Cycleback suggests to check, in his freely downloadable pdf book entitled "antique and art prints" (first on the list)from the webpage below. Check page 87 of the pdf book for the tip on Dali [URL='http://www.cycleback.com']www.cycleback.com[/URL] Good luck TTA[/QUOTE]
