    I have a painting that has been passed down through the family and can’t seem to identify the painting or painter. It seems original with the signature “ C. Pape” but we can’t seem to identify the painter. It could be Frank C Papé but his work doesn’t seem to align with this painting. Any help would be appreciated!

    Thank you.

    Welcome to the forum, Olivia.
    Lovely painting. The Madonna is of a type seen in different European countries, and copied in the Americas. Is she holding a lamp?
    The stamp is faint, but it seems to have been framed in New York state.

    I would guess Latin American. I've never before seen a Madonna holding a Toucan.

    The national bird of Belize is a Toucan, but it isn't red-breasted.

    There is a red-breasted Toucan that lives in southern Brazil/Paraguay/Argentina.

    Any connection to those areas?

    Thank you! Yes I should have posted a better image but the frame says “Ancobilt” from Glendale NY. Posted this image because it had the frame #, I wasn’t sure if that was relevant.

    Is it a toucan? I thought it was a red lamp.:hilarious: The pictures are so tiny.
    Could you please post bigger pictures so everyone can see? As komo would say: "You've got to help us to help you." You might be missing the right information this way.
