Featured Abstract Impasto painting- comments

Hi all,please any guesses as to the signature on this painting? Not sure at all,but thinking it possibly dates from around the 70’s? Or earlier? It came for the apartment of an elderly Italian gentleman. He also had a few paintings and drawings from the Netherlands (Amsterdam). It is 42 x 32cm in size. What do you think of it? Possible age? Thank you for any comments.

 

Not entirely successful. An amateur, I would think. And at first glance, I saw the date "65" following the signature. Not at all sure that's what it is though.

Thanks Debora,was also wondering if that was indeed a ‘65’

 

i quite like it and would have bought as well, its hard to judge something like this when the cameras even a slightly bit off (not perfectly parallel to photo edges)
but still like what i'm seeing

i also think a bit of age as well, hard to tell but wasn't painted in recent times i bet

 

I like the colours.

 

Appreciate the comment. Thanks for the reply Charlie. I will try and take a better photo tomorrow.

 

Thanks AJ.So do I

 

1965 is certainly plausible, the appearance of the back & use of Masonite was fairly common in the 50's & 60's. The varnishing adds depth and richness to a decent abstract.

 

Thank you. Appreciate the reply and comments. I still like it (so that’s good)
