More photos, why he was not loaded, will set later.

Somewhere I have this picture in my already seen ... Although I can be wrong.
katerina, please tell me - you did not exposed to the auction? Or buy at auction?

As I have said before, it really left me by inheritance and is in our family is very, very many years. I appeal to various specialists, her photo was on the online forums collectors UUU, appealed to the Gelos and other organizations, it was 3-4 years ago. Maybe you picture where some of these sources are met.

What is the nature of the press do not know, here's the photo.

Do not even imagine what in the gallery? Where I did not pay, everywhere dealers who powdering brains as they can, usually without the knowledge, but only the mercantile interest. I do not want to sell only to, I'm not in a hurry.

And yet it Zichy? Lomize told me, the picture is very promising, such as wait, but why wait? Time is not in favor of cloth without a care.

You, too, is no knowledge, to answer your question yourself. Who will you disclose all the cards. The purpose of the dealer-to earn, and that he could only do by buying cheap or cheaper prices possible sale. Perhaps!
A religious painting, and even a form (obviously for the church, for the king's gate) of this shall we say "not very religious person for the artist's" investment for the dealer is very risky.
Look for the final buyer, though, I think, this is you will be hard to do because of your character even.

As to the dealers I have nothing against that, half the country so live, risks are everywhere, in any investments.
Of course, I have neither the experience nor the knowledge, I am looking for a specific buyer, but now I can not understand where can I find him? So I here with a question. I do still think before you sell, you must know that you sell and how much it might cost.
I understand that the picture requires restoration - is money, possibly re-examination. Can people who invested money in it, in the future to justify their costs, but also earn the same question. But such questions are likely to be put before each purchase of antiques.

This work is part of the church decoration, on that basis. Typically, the four evangelists are depicted on top of "Sail" (the so-called Haute arches central) or above the main altar part. It seems that this Catholic image. Maybe this thing will want to buy a museum ... Or an Italian collector ...

Refer to study ancient languages, the inscription inside the press is similar to ancient Greek, may request assistance at the respective sites ... Then there will be more ronyatno origin, the original ...

At the king's gate, they are portrayed.
Typically, the gates are depicted the four evangelists and the Annunciation, as a symbol of the fact that the gates of Paradise are open again for people.

Both of you, gentlemen, very clever and quite right: and there, and there evangelists are depicted (but sails now not really hang there made frescoes or mosaics):)

Of course, the big size. The same, of philistine, on the pole?
