<p>[QUOTE=&quot;moreotherstuff, post: 9577055, member: 56&quot;]Prints that are made from other people&#039;s work generally give the printmaker a credit and the originator of the image a credit as well.&nbsp; That doesn&#039;t seem to be the case here.&nbsp; I would find it understandable for a copyist to take entire credit if this is a pencil drawing, just because that seems to happen a lot.</p><p><br /></p><p>The Christie&#039;s description of the Winterhalter says &quot;black lead, grey wash&quot;.&nbsp; The Christie&#039;s photo is very soft, so I can&#039;t be sure of what&#039;s there.&nbsp; They say it&#039;s signed, and there&#039;s something in the lower right, but it&#039;s not legible in their photo, so who knows what other details might also be illegible.</p><p><br /></p><p>This image could be pencil, but it also has the texture you expect in lithograph.&nbsp;&nbsp; I can&#039;t tell from the photo if it&#039;s a drawing or a lithograph (probably couldn&#039;t tell in person), but if it&#039;s a lithograph, then it would be a multiple counted as a reproduction, and a Winterhalter credit expected.</p><p><br /></p><p>If it&#039;s a pencil copy, it looks pretty darn slick to me. Not your typical amateur or student. (I don&#039;t expect it is a drawing, but can only hope I&#039;m wrong.)[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
