[QUOTE="Any Jewelry, post: 2405092, member: 2844"]Wow, I never thought I would see a Theodorus van Oorschot painting on Antiquers!:jawdrop: I knew him, he was a good friend of my aunt, and my parents had several of his paintings! My aunt even named her cat after him, which he didn't like at all.:hilarious: The frame maybe, but Theodorus, we called him Dorus, was born in Schijndel, in the east of the province of Noord Brabant, the Netherlands. A stone's throw from where I live. He died there in 1989. The subject looks to be from my part of the country, but I would have to search which bridge it actually is. The frame has nothing to do with a Dorus van Oorschot painting. He lived and painted in the 20th century, and his work is Brabant Impressionist. Here is a van Oorschot which has the same feel as yours: [IMG]https://www.startpage.com/av/proxy-image?piurl=https%3A%2F%2Fimage.invaluable.com%2FhousePhotos%2FYair%2F89%2F593689%2FH5649-L102006273_mid.jpg&sp=1594644407Tcd0d2ddc706d746c38bbfc57d54d53418f5cef0648d3400b282cf088dca7a5b5[/IMG] [URL]https://www.invaluable.com/auction-lot/theodorus-van-oorschot-dutch-1910-1989-181-c-847492585c[/URL] More van Oorschots: [URL]https://www.invaluable.com/artist/oorschot-theodorus-van-8jun5g1eyh/sold-at-auction-prices/[/URL][/QUOTE]
