    IS it possible to find who made a painting without putting it out of the frame? It's oil painting, given to ownership of my family member +- 70 years ago. 66496340_711060399353832_6634822812655681536_n.jpg

    If not signed, it would be impossible to identify the artist, professional or very possibly amateur, who created your work. To get the best assistance, it would be helpful if you posted a straight on photograph of the painting's front and back including frame and close-ups of any stickers, labels or notations.

    It is possible that there is a sig hiding under the frame, but that doesn't guarantee identification of the artist. Many signatures are illegible and many paintings are done by unknown hobbyists.

    There may be a signature but I doubt to be something from a professional artist.
