[QUOTE="Lucille.b, post: 2767952, member: 51"]No hints as to artist, but when purchased (at thrift) this had the following sticker. Didn't initially post it as I felt it was the former owner, probably deceased. [ATTACH=full]279321[/ATTACH] By the way, it was the thrift that demolished the back paper, not me. Purchased this way. So unscrewed all 8 screws on the side of the frame and the wooden insert just popped out. It has "Karlebach" written on the side, from the framer. [ATTACH=full]279322[/ATTACH] Picture itself is on some kind of board: [ATTACH=full]279323[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]279324[/ATTACH] And behind that, cardboard, but something written on that which suggests this was an order. "Berlin, no mat", plus the size. (Berlin being what I believe the former owner's last name was.) [ATTACH=full]279325[/ATTACH] Would have been framed around 50 years ago. So the main thing from this exercise, I think someone brought this piece in for framing rather than it being something they were selling. Still open to suggestions, without knowing the artist, hard to say what to do. Thanks for the thoughts![/QUOTE]
