[QUOTE="Any Jewelry, post: 4411783, member: 2844"]Attractive painting, Boland. In some respects I prefer it to the Gerard one. For instance, to me the jetties and the way the rocks along the shore are grouped look more natural on your painting. Yours is painted on 'Talens schildercarton', painter's cardboard. Talens is Dutch. In 1949 Talens became Koninklijke Talens, Royal Talens, so I would guess the cardboard dates from before 1949. Painters use old materials sometimes though. Luc Gerard is from neigbouring Belgium, where painters also have access to Talens materials. I wonder if Luc Gerard and 'BR, RP, BP or RR' were painting buddies, one painting on canvas, the other on 'Talens schildercarton'.[/QUOTE]
