<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Figtree3, post: 12550802, member: 33&quot;]Here is another painting signed F. Pogue that was sold at auction in January: <a href="https://www.ebth.com/items/14365030-f-pogue-mountainous-landscape-watercolor-painting" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.ebth.com/items/14365030-f-pogue-mountainous-landscape-watercolor-painting" rel="nofollow">https://www.ebth.com/items/14365030-f-pogue-mountainous-landscape-watercolor-painting</a></p><p><br /></p><p>The sig looks different, but is printed in block letters as yours is. And on the back there is an inscription signed by &quot;F. P. Nelson.&quot; I looked for &quot;F. Pogue Nelson&quot; online and found a WikiTree genealogy entry that AI says could be Frances Law (Pogue) Nelson of Cincinnati (1896-1988). However, WikiTree wouldn&#039;t let me go to her direct entry because I don&#039;t have a login and it says they have had too many malicious bots and are keeping anonymous users out. The link that I found goes to a general Pogue genealogy page: <a href="https://www.wikitree.com/genealogy/POGUE" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.wikitree.com/genealogy/POGUE" rel="nofollow">https://www.wikitree.com/genealogy/POGUE</a></p><p><br /></p><p>I just looked in Ancestry, and somebody posted a picture of an article about her death. It says she was &quot;an active Cincinnati civic leader and a Cincinnati artist.&quot;</p><p>It also goes on to list many arts organizations to which she belonged... and that she even exhibited in local art shows dedicated to her work. She also belonged to a painters&#039; group. During World War I she drove for the Red Cross Motor Corps.</p><p><br /></p><p>Based on the above, I&#039;m sure her painting skill improved over time.</p><p><br /></p><p>Anyway, it seems likely to be the right person. And I&#039;ll have to say thanks to AI for giving me information that apparently it could see in Wikitree, but I couldn&#039;t![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
