Good time of day. This painting inherited from distant relatives (old fans). Help rate this piece of art.
Size 36h46

in Europe 150 - 250 euros.

In the known databases mentioned about a dozen artists with the name of Pike, but all of them the name does not begin with D. The artist is "D. Pike" in the network is mentioned (but not more so) only once on the site http://www.shopgoodwill.com/viewItem.asp?ItemID=5238560. Virtually unknown.

But the picture you pretty. In the style barbizontsev-animalists: Charles Emile Jacque (Charles Emile Jacque, 1813 - 1894) and Philibert-Leon Couturier (Philibert-Leon Couturier, 1823 - 1901). If it were not for the signature and date, then I would think that this - the work of Couturier. Nobody else so fond of depicting chickens and roosters, and a similar interior is typical for him. Most likely, you - a copy of one of the works of these artists.

in that time and again that copy.
Subject to the mid to late 19 th century in Europe is very popular.
Leading Masters in the amount of a desk are not less than 10.000 - 15.000 Euro and indescribable beauty.
Works "middling" tradable commodities are 500 - 2000 euros.
For example the work of Charles Laurent MARÉCHAL (1801-1887)

Thank you! You me shed light. Very interesting.

Somehow I did before D is seen as a lower case letter.
Maybe this Ad Pike? Maybe it was such an artist? Painfully cocks cute :).
