<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Gatoblanconz, post: 9558734, member: 14927&quot;]Hi I bought this antique oil painting by H. Oehring 1835-1917.</p><p><br /></p><p>A couple of things I&#039;m interested to understand.</p><p>The first one is how come it has the artist date of birth and date of death on it does that mean that it was reframed? Or was the plaque added later to the original frame? it looks to me like the frame is quite old the frame looks like it&#039;s older than 1917 but I&#039;m not an expert on any of this.</p><p><br /></p><p>Secondly when was the glass added?</p><p>The paper that was wrapping around the edges of the glass is quite old I have actually removed the glass pane because it looks much better without the glass you can see that it&#039;s an actual oil painting and you can see the brush strokes better, plus the glass had dust behind it.</p><p>I don&#039;t have any photos of it before I removed the glass.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]456880[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]456881[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]456882[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]456883[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]456884[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]456885[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]456886[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]456888[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]456889[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]456891[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
