<p>[QUOTE=&quot;blooey, post: 1299567, member: 12007&quot;]Looks like a Western US or Canadian painting, 1890-1900 or so, slightly on the naive side but still pretty nice. Doubtful you will be able to identify painter imho, so if you want to get it fixed it would be purely for your own benefit.</p><p>Personally, I would just leave it alone (small rip) or cut a small piece of canvas to back the slit and fill in the front with some colour. That&#039;s probably what the restorer would do too or maybe just fill the slit with goop and paint the bit to match.</p><p>I wouldn&#039;t clean the painting; that would ruin it.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
