<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Lucille.b, post: 450436, member: 51&quot;]Thanks all.&nbsp; Appreciate the tips on reverse image, etc.</p><p><br /></p><p>[USER=3974]@aaroncab[/USER] , I think I am inclined to agree with you that this is someone&#039;s copy of the painting, rather than a giclee.&nbsp; Don&#039;t know why I didn&#039;t think of this, but I brought a shot of the original up on my computer and held it right next to the painting, of course I&#039;m comparing a 8&quot; version to a 44&quot; real life, but I do see small differences.&nbsp; The only other explanation would be some kind of over-painted giclee print, that wasn&#039;t over-painted very well.&nbsp; The whole thing is canvas but I think giclees are done on canvas.</p><p><br /></p><p>It is actually a little more interesting to me if someone painted this entire thing, though.&nbsp; When I was doing my comparison I realized the one I have is dirty.&nbsp; No smells to it, but sort of yellowed, possibly cigarette smoke.</p><p><br /></p><p>Hmmm.&nbsp; Now what to do with it.&nbsp; I&#039;d be much more likely to rearrange my living room to find a spot for display if this was not a copy of a known work.&nbsp; I prefer original art, even if it is a bit rough.&nbsp; I do like the fact that this is someone&#039;s painting rather than a giclee, but we&#039;ll see.&nbsp;&nbsp; Thanks![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
