<p>[QUOTE="J Dagger, post: 843699, member: 10944"]I’m horrible with deciphering old cursive. Even more so if it’s in a different language. Someone guessed German possibly. I can’t make a word out here. Can anyone decipher what it says or the signature? Anyone recognize the image or swan mark? Framed by J.J. Gillespie out of Pittsburgh. Turns out this is America’s oldest art gallery having opened in 1832! I’m sure there were plenty of German artists in the area so it could indeed be German.</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i64.tinypic.com/2uti3d3.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i65.tinypic.com/33m5ztk.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
