<p>[QUOTE=&quot;opoe, post: 273983, member: 5459&quot;]Or signature near impossible to photograph....</p><p>My uncle from Belgium left me this pretty little painting of a flower in a vase, I later realized it was an iris, because that&#039;s what is written on the back as well as a name (my real name is co-incidentally also Iris, so all the more suitable that I got this painting). It is quite dirty, all those years in a smoke filled livingroom did not do the colours any good.</p><p>I cannot read the signature at all and it is very hard to capture it in a picture, I tried and tried again, daylight, artificial light...</p><p>I love the frame too, which is at least 55 years old, because the man who made it died in 1962. He started his company late 1800s. It still exists today, I asked his grandson about it.</p><p>My uncle, born in 1937, grew up in Nijmegen, the Netherlands, so it might have been something from the parental home and therefore much older than 1962...</p><p>I hope somebody here has better eyes than me and can help find the name of the artist.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]86918[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]86919[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]86920[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]86921[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]86922[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
