<p>[QUOTE="mirana, post: 11170471, member: 79705"]Not all prints have halftone.

You can look for brush strokes but even that can fool you... They printed on canvas in this period too, plus made the clear top coat have brush strokes, and then there's "retouched" prints that have a little bit of real paint on top for accents. They don't make it easy!</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><font size="3">*When other factors are similar.
