This is a copy of the work of the artist?

[allexx]

Sold at my request made a few more pictures (can not do high-quality photos, and more seller, and reported that he bought the work from an American lady a few decades ago, and she, in turn, acquired earlier (the exact date is not said) in Switzerland.

Do you also think that the copy? Why?

Firstly, the apparent differences. And not only in detadyah, but also in the level of skill.

Secondly, the thing is very sweet, soulful. So, to be sold well, many would want to buy.
  That means we need to make copies. With a good hand can make quite a lot - on canvas, wood, various sizes. The author himself, I think, would not have to do it, meaning that it is still a portrait and, most likely, a particular girl.
  But some "business" the artists completely. Countless numbers of such examples.
It is important here - when the copy was made, but the fact that she is quite good, as far as can be seen clearly.

But the author's signature, Schausse, in my reproduction is the same. Why copyist sign a spoof?

Such a thing is not very difficult to repeat, but the copy will, of course, cheaper. Hence the theme and copy the signature .. After all, the true author still got a trophy in the album ... themselves were surprised - what names!
(A sellers ... their "Provenance" special trust do not advise)

I looked at the canvas and, although I am not an expert, it seems to me that the canvas is made in the twentieth century. New it some. Is that overlap with the old ...

If the seller is not lying and work in Switzerland ... In pre-war, and perhaps post-war Europe, Ferdinand Schauss, probably already has been honored so that it copied. Know to where the original portrait in which the museum.

Now about this artist mentions little, so I was surprised that he could forge (copy sooner. While such gaps occur in our days.

was so revered that it copied.

It is not the very name, and merchantability of such things. It is simple and sweet, it is easy to copy. And the name of the artist as an appendage - a sudden?
... After all, nobody did anything to an old picture, paint on the chemical composition is not falsified. And the price ... quite. That was calculated on the "hot cakes". In economic terms, all correctly.
Find would join you, the reproduction of the original in color at least on paper ... I would have ordered a copy on cardboard.! Or the tree
(I'll send you my email, the tabernacle in the mail every? Thanks in advance.)
