<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Debora, post: 13077718, member: 1476&quot;]There is no reason to believe this work was painted by Félix Hidalgo, one of the great 20th century Filipino painters.&nbsp; It is not signed with his name; it has no resemblance to his work.</p><p><br /></p><p><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/F%C3%A9lix_Resurrecci%C3%B3n_Hidalgo" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/F%C3%A9lix_Resurrecci%C3%B3n_Hidalgo" rel="nofollow">https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Félix_Resurrección_Hidalgo</a></p><p><br /></p><p>The canvas back is clearly stamped &quot;Painted in Italy&quot; as can be found on 20th century decorative paintings.&nbsp; (Italy is also a place Hidalgo never lived or worked.)&nbsp; The canvas is stapled, something that dates it well into the 20th century.&nbsp; (Tacks would have been used during Hidalgo&#039;s lifetime which was 1855 to 1913.)</p><p><br /></p><p>Debora[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
