    This is one of a group of artwork I got at a local thrift store on their first day of reopening. I think it's beautiful but am wondering if there is a way to tell if this is a painting or a print without having to take a lot of nails out of the back?
    I would be happy thinking it's a old print except if you look at the lips it sure looks like that's red paint swiped on them?
    Thank you!

    Heavy foxing sure hurts the value on this print.

    If it's a print that's fine - for $20 I think the frame is worth that much, no?
