<p>[QUOTE="benbenny007, post: 250088, member: 4194"]Ok we know now that the artist was probably Russian Jewish. The numbers 5695 relate to the date 1935. But what could the letters M.T.I below his name mean? Could this relate to a exhibition maybe which was held on 15 January 1935??? From what I seen on many artworks it's rarely signed with full date an place. Most of the times artist mention only the year. The Russian link could also be possible because the text on the left bottom reads to me as M. Solmalinsky?? Sounds Russian and I think it refers to the man in be picture? Any info/input is welcome</p><p><br /></p><p>This is the text from the website which Joy mentioned</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>"Naturalisation Certificate: Israel Harry Greenbaum (known as Henry Greenbaum).
