<p>[QUOTE=&quot;bosko69, post: 4493949, member: 16283&quot;]Here&#039;s a 12 1/2&quot; by 9 1/4&quot; oil painting of a fairy-it&#039;s unsigned and I&#039;d love to find out who painted it.</p><p>It looks to be from the Victorian period to me and was relined (mounted on a newer canvas panel for restoration/preservation) sometime in the past.It was relined by using either a heated wax/animal glue method.</p><p>&nbsp; The frame it came in was nice but no older than 1950&#039;s-70&#039;s.This piece was executed quickly and was probably made as a study for perhaps a larger finished painting.The painter seemed to me to have a fairly high skill level-it was quickly done on unprimed canvas in pencil and oil.</p><p>&nbsp; The nails in the frame are copper and there&#039;s a number lightly written on the back-&#039;73444&#039; (very faint).</p><p>&nbsp;&nbsp; Any guesses welcome-love it and sure would like to find out who did it-Thanks ![ATTACH=full]392153[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]392154[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]392156[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]392157[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]392158[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]392161[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
