LCR, and you do not think that a person could write, and a hat with David's work by Guido Reni?

Vivien, cool!

I first saw this painting in the late 50's, when I was 5-6 years.
So what about a printer printing on canvas and photoshop do not think.
Take it on faith.
There, from the same source, was the picture type Magdalene
slightly larger size, I remember it very vaguely,
but her fate is unknown to me, no one to ask, all died as children and grandchildren do not know.
Perhaps it up, but very old.

Can be done, if necessary, additional photos of fragments from any angle.

It is likely that such headgear was typical for the works by Italian artists of the 17 th century. Let us consider another D. Feti, G. Barbieri and G. Assereto

Vivian, you really pleased with all of us! I join the cries of Bravo! by LCR.

Thank you all for your interest and determination of the plot.

But interested in more and score at least indicative.
In this forum, many professionals and I would like to uslishat their opinion.
What value does the picture?
Artistic, aesthetic, historic?

Least approximately.
For example:
Inquire this 19 century - then so much (from XXX to YYY)
Inquire is a 18 century - then so much (from XXX to YYY)
etc. (other options)

Probably for a more precise answer to do analysis.
What is its value?
What gives the examination? Just specify the time of writing the picture?
(Although this question should be asked in the next forum thread, but I shall be grateful for the answers).

Is it worth doing it?
Or leave for the next generation?

Painting is not very prominent, a few thousand dollars may cost.
The problem is that some collectors do not like these stories, so it does not add to its value.

I would be surprised if for her to Drouot in Paris, gave more than 2 thousand euros.

Actually reminds of some third-rate Italian (?) Artists of the late 17 - early 18 century.

I hope that it's better late ...
Turning the page after the release of the Forum, came across the topic.
Here's the answer: it is not very exact copy of a painting by Gregorio Lazzarini, "David Winner.

Thank you for the information, U-niks.

But why not a replica?
In my very accurate.

But could not there Gregorio Lazzarini write two identical pictures?

At my size a little bit more - 103,5 x 84
(sorry, but at the first page of the topic mistaken).
Probably used to be a little wider, as a frame I think
was slightly narrowed (somewhere in the 3-4 cm) (see reverse side of the picture).
Or so made initially.
In Gregorio Lazzarini - 72h51.8.

On the original, too, no signature.
