<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Lucille.b, post: 119247, member: 51&quot;]An interesting exercise in comparisons.&nbsp; All of the signed Dias portraits have this exact shirt, collar up, patch on the sleeve. That is so funny to me.</p><p><br /></p><p><i>&quot;I see three different artists have painted the same painting - all shown here in links by members and the original.&quot;</i></p><p><br /></p><p>Just to clarify, I think we are looking at either one artist or at most two.&nbsp; Everything so far has been signed by V. Dias, I don&#039;t think people are saying that some of those are by different artists.&nbsp; The one is question is mine --the single unsigned one.</p><p><br /></p><p>For the record, I doubt its a Chinese factory painting, just for the simple reason that the frame looks to be older, the canvas is darkened from age.&nbsp; I&#039;d put it at 50 years old plus or thereabouts.</p><p><br /></p><p>Also wanted to mention that bit by the collar is not a signature, and I haven&#039;t taken it out of the frame.&nbsp; Taking things out of the frame is my least favorite thing to do.&nbsp; Can never get it back in just right.</p><p><br /></p><p>Okay, commence the slaying, to my eye, looking at the two above, I actually like the unsigned one better.&nbsp; Especially the face.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
