Hungarian folk art

Hi everyone, this is a tough one. i am looking for more informations about this naif painting. it is on some sort of cloth or silk material, tehn attached to a cardboard support. On the left the date 1948 on the right the name Coopo(?) Budapest...It was donated to my father about 30 years ago from a collector...maybe some friend from Hungary or some collector has seen something similar?

Could you take another pic of the sig and try to get it straight on?

I'm not convinced that the second word is "Budapest".

 

(though I grant the subject seems very appropriate to have "Budapest" be the second word. )

 

Is it very fragile? It looks like it is. It looks like it was done with tempra paints?

 

I'm quite sure it's Budapest, while the name or pseudonym could be Coopò or Coapò...yes it's very fragile and tempra is my guess too

 

The thing is that whoever did it, it does not seem a simple amateur to me...i think the subject is a sort of wedding or ritual dance at the sunset

 

I have some news...it cant' be tempera because it's on fabric....no pastels for the same reason....he probably used dyes and then finished with some other technique..Do someone knows about painting techinques?

 

It actually could be tempra on fabric - it looks fragile enough, but I agree it's not pastels. But if it's not tempra paint, it's most likely to be acrylic.

 

Yes...i thought about acrylic...but in 1948 in a naif painting is it possile?

 

It LOOKS like tempra paint, but if the fabric is not mounted, I think it would have been chipping off when the frame was removed? The mat boards make me think you just unframed this piece? So yeah. I still think tempra. Not all tempra paint is chippy, although all I encountered through the 1960s was. Some I used in the 1970s was not chippy at all. I used it successfully on newsprint.

I don't know what country this piece is from, so I cannot guess what paint the artist had access to.
