    I have an 100% oil on canvas art and the artist Name seem to be M. Bosky. I don't know if the "M" is his/her middle name or!!!

    I have attached picture of the name.

    I can also take a picture of the entire picture if that will help.

    There are difference in the 2 painting. Although similar. Examples.

    1.) The back of neck area is not the same. There's no color variation.
    2.) The color is totally different. Although this could be the camera of the one online. The color I have is much lighter
    3. The mark on the block that's holding his hand is different. The one I have only has 1 mark. I see 2 on the online Picture
    4. The back arrow is different. The one I have has 2 arrow ends, not 1.

    There are also other different besides the name. Anyway. Thanks. I'll keep checking.

    Stan, yours is a modern copy of David's painting. No need to do further checking.

    Either the painter didn't have a good photo of the David work, or he/she wanted to put a personal stamp on it. The painter could even have been an art student who painted it in situ at the Musée d'Art Thomas Henry and kept being interrupted by visitors.;)
    However you look at it, it is still a copy of the David painting. Which doesn't mean it is a 100% exact replica or a giclée print.
