[QUOTE="moreotherstuff, post: 1562827, member: 56"]The second canvas might mean that the painting has been relined,which means that someone took a deteriorated old canvas and stuck it onto a new canvas to strengthen it. The colors are certainly different in these photos. I don't have much more to add. Recently, on the Antiques Roadshow, someone showed a 19th C portrait of a woman. It was oil on canvas and looked like competent work to me, but it was anonymous. I was surprised when the appraiser gave it a valuation of $100-$200. I would have thought it was worth more, but there you have it.[/QUOTE]
