Does anyone recognize this?

This picture was hanging on the wall in my great grandparent’s house in the late 60’s. I was just wondering if anyone could help me identify it.

 

Its a very blurry Spanish lady viewed with cataracts

 

60's wall art........to match the couch...

 

Grace Slick ?

 

Only if the couch was wearing a peineta and mantilla. Which some couches did.

 

Impossible to tell from your photograph. Could be by someone like Romero Torres or could be a decorative painting from a period when all things Spanish were exotic and in vogue. Are you able to post better quality photographs?

it could be Gila.............................................. miss her !

 

I tried to lure her back by posting bird images, but to no avail.

 

I found this one by looking up the Mantilla headdress.
looks to be the same picture, but it was on a book cover so couldnt find the artist. At least its something

ya, that's her alright......

 

Thank you! That’s the same one. It looks to be called the Black Mantilla by Enrique Dorda

 

No, The book is called like that. Many authors / publishers used artworks from different artist for their book covers. `The picture still needs research to establish the artist.

I guess you already know that this highly likely is a print. But it will be a fun search and at least you will know what you have hanging on your wall.

 

I think that is the actual artist and painting name but I could be wrong. I searched his name and the Black Mantilla and it showed other artwork of his and the same print from another site that had his name as the painter. We don’t have the print anymore, but I’ve seen it in the background in so many family photos and always wondered what it was called

 

Ow ok. yes i see now. its a print they are selling and not a book. i alwaays thought that website was for books only. how silly of me. h

here is a other print

I guess You should buy this print and frame it and hang it up in your home.

 

To combine different replies... looks to me like either Spanish or 1960s teased hair.

 

O'le !
