<p>[QUOTE=&quot;blooey, post: 2970695, member: 12007&quot;]If those white spots are bare canvas then prep work wasn&#039;t too pro at the time and paint will continue to flake off unless stabilized. If the spots are the ground (gesso) then you have more of a shot at getting it fixed. Probably sat on a damp floor for a while.</p><p><br /></p><p>Not a bad decorative copy, 19thc, if it were mine and I had the room to hang such a big thing, I&#039;d probably do the work myself and just live with the result. OTOH these things can do OK on Ebay, just list it as is and as an &quot;old master oil painting&quot; keeping the knowledge of what it is a copy of to yourself and no doubt several fish will bite, just like you did! <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie57" alt=":jimlad:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
