[QUOTE="journeymagazine, post: 10314625, member: 84"]I found this at my local thrift store last week & knew I had to post here to get a better idea what I have. I thought it was a photograph that had been coated with a shellac to protect it (you can see the creases where it looks like it was rolled up and then something flatten it, leaving creases (which made me think photograph), but i can't get it to show the brush strokes on pants, shirt, etc that you can see with the naked eye) My friend at the thrift store with me thought it looked like a old print. But! Taking these photos I found a small are where the art is missing & you can see the canvas behind it - which makes me think it may be an actual painting? Also it's taped in back so I can't see why, but it's extremely thick , not just a photo, print or a painting? Can anyone tell me what I have? PS - first few taken in sunlight & rest inside (by open door to let in some natural light) Last few show creases. Thank you!
