<p>[QUOTE="TT Antique, post: 583173, member: 2653"]Dear All</p><p><br /></p><p>I bought this print ( a lithograph) today from a flea market. It is signed "Marc" and I did a little research on the spot and I found out that it was by a Serbian-French artist by the name Nicolas Markovitch(1894-1964).He used various pseudo names. He was known for his watercolors and Lithographs. A Swiss printing house by the name Stehili Freres did many chromolithos of his watercolors.But I read that there were some half tone color prints made as well. The one I bought looks like a watercolor and has the Stehili Freres official stamp at the back as well as a a copy right symbol on the left. It really looks a genuine stone chromolithograph and I couldnt detect any dot matrix. However the fact that I saw a copy right symbol made me quite unsure though I read somewhere that some artists sometimes put the copy right symbol on some of thier original works.Can anyone shed light whether what I have is an original chromolithograph or whether it is a halftone or photomechanical lithograph? I have put several photos of the print after taking it out from its old original frame.thanks in advance!</p><p><br /></p><p>TTA</p><p>[ATTACH=full]174966[/ATTACH] </p><p>[ATTACH=full]174967[/ATTACH] </p><p>[ATTACH=full]174968[/ATTACH] </p><p>[ATTACH=full]174969[/ATTACH] </p><p>[ATTACH=full]174970[/ATTACH] </p><p>[ATTACH=full]174971[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
