<p>[QUOTE="Debora, post: 1017498, member: 1476"]I just wanted to add... Although I find this type of naive Latin American souvenir painting charming, in almost every instance it's impossible to identify the artist or even the culture. One problem is the Spanish-language doesn't have a lot of surnames (one reason people use both their father's and mother's) so a name like Ruiz is very common. And many countries share the same iconography. </p><p><br /></p><p>Debora[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
