An amateurish picture of no merit that I can see. Ugly subject poorly executed. No talent, no appeal, no value whatsoever.
It's a pretty amateurish painting of a gruesome subject, I think, and can't imagine R.Howard is a name of note in the art world.
What a delightful piece, utterly charming.
I can't believe a fake could be so good. The painting is lovely. It's a bit fancy for my taste, but it reeks of class in my very humble opinion....
It looks like a cheap and nasty Chinese frame. More photos are needed of the painting -- including of the back, the canvas, the tacks, the frame ...
In my experience the bases of pottery produced by Amphora (I was speaking only of Amphora) are white and show the maker's marks. Zsolnay ... I...
Amphora is marvellous stuff. I have a few 'umble pieces. In my very limited experience the base is always plain and signed. Maybe Nutcracker could...

EAPG era? rushes to Google ...
I fear the cost of re-caning would be prohibitive.
Made-up names ... I'm reminded of an antique sale some years ago. When a painting came up, a regular called out to the auctioneer, "Is it signed,...
I would hate to be left out, please count me IN :-)
Me too please
Funny how it goes in fits and starts. I've been on a bit of a roll, if you call three cheap typewriters from three different sales a roll :-) Now,...
