<p>[QUOTE="ValerieK, post: 4424024, member: 7360"]My vote is for I or A Seemann; the first letter has been partially lost to the frame. It is odd that the tag says "A Cornish Cottage, Plymouth, England", when Plymouth is in Devon not Cornwall, and a local artist wouldn't put the country on, would they, everyone knows Plymouth and Cornwall are in England! My guess is that the artist may or may not be English - the style could well be English, but I'm no expert! But the person who wrote the tag, perhaps circa 1900 - 1930, perhaps when framing the picture, is definitely not from the UK. Whoever and wherever, it's a very pleasant little painting, I really like it.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
