<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Jim Goodykoontz, post: 9855018, member: 82566&quot;]hi everyone.&nbsp; i found this painting a couple of days ago in a Goodwill.&nbsp; i got all excited when i started researching it because the signature, &quot;Cross,&quot; corresponds with a fairly important Western artist Henry H. Cross.&nbsp; i thought i&#039;d found a lost masterpiece.&nbsp; i&#039;m now pretty sure this isn&#039;t the work of Henry Cross.&nbsp; i can&#039;t find another example of his work online where he didn&#039;t sign his paintings &quot;H H Cross.&quot;&nbsp; also, it really doesn&#039;t look like any other work of his that i&#039;ve found online.&nbsp; this painted, frame and all measures 32&quot;x26&quot;.</p><p><br /></p><p>anyway, i&#039;m hoping to figure out who did this, but also, i would like some input as to how old this painting might be.&nbsp; when i found this it had a cardboard cover on the backside.&nbsp; i believe that&#039;s why the canvas is so clean.&nbsp; i removed that to get pics of the backside, as well as the corners.&nbsp; you can see someone attached quarter-round wood molding to the back edge of the stretcher and the frame.&nbsp; i&#039;m wondering how old is the frame or what era is it from?&nbsp; any help will be greatly appreciated...thanks, jim[ATTACH=full]493700[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]493701[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]493702[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]493703[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]493704[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]493705[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
