    I'd say so! Signature looks like a match. Several hundred dollars. Nice pick!

    As long as it's an original and not a print. I can't tell from the pictures? If you look closely and can see dimensional brushstrokes then it's the real deal. Some giclee prints look real so you have to be careful.

    Was surprised to see this. My brother has some of his paintings on his wall. He was a fellow falconer and knew the artist. Nice find.

    He did tell me all about the book and there is one on ebay. You think it's a good idea to have the book with the painting. Adds to provenance?

    Yay!!!:happy:
    Provenance is the history of former ownership, which only adds to value if your painting was once owned by someone famous or part of a famous museum collection etc.
