Guest guest Posted August 20, 2010 Report Share Posted August 20, 2010 It's really a nice piece, I don't recognize the signature either but you never know. I'd say take it to an art dealer and see if they can appraise it or at least give you some info about it. Am I seeing this correctly that it's dated 1483 or is it 1983? If it's dated 1483 that alone makes it worth something. Good luck, hope you have a treasure there along with a good work of art.

Guest guest Posted August 21, 2010 Report Share Posted August 21, 2010 Never say never, but I've yet to find a pre-17th-cent painting of any sort with either a signature or Arabic numeral date - and in the course of costume research, I've peered at what seems like bazillions of them... :-D I know I've seen something somewhere very like this in style, but be blessed if I can remember where/who - modern art just ain't my THANG. If somebody's a mind to, perhaps search the Web Gallery of Art - http://www.wga.hu/ even if you don't find this pic or artist, it's still a great " museum " to visit in your jammies! in WY Practical Blackwork Designs " You get a wonderful view from the point of no return...

Guest guest Posted August 21, 2010 Report Share Posted August 21, 2010 Nevermind WGA, they only go up to 1850... :-D I'm trying Artcyclopedia, because I drank too much Dr Pepper with dinner and I ain't sleepy. The subjects look very central/south American to me - Mayan, Incan, etc. Mom's do-rag is confusing me,though... in WY Practical Blackwork Designs " You get a wonderful view from the point of no return...
