<p>[QUOTE="Debora, post: 4251345, member: 1476"]The back of a work provides lots of information whether there are marks or not. It can be used to identify factory paintings. It can also be used to point toward age. For instance, someone at some time gilded the front of the frame but left the back in its original pickle. That, along with the frame's design, points toward post-World War II. 1950s/1960s. It is likely the original frame and -- INHO -- they should have left it the way it was.</p><p><br /></p><p>Debora</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]337545[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
