I looked freaks brush around the letter F - they converge at the original and your copy.
So you can call the gallery to Jan Krueger-yes, and ask where this work?
at the same time and get to know :-)

[irimi]

Dear Eugene!
And you have carefully read the excerpt from the article?
He was selling other people's pictures, but does not mean that he wrote them.

[uriart]

Seriy, it is interesting that in the examination of the dimensions of my friends are not given.

And why?

[Seriy]

One leaflet that you post is expertise? I thought some quotes from sources.
Sizes, precision, may even vary for one job within a couple of T e see in the catalog may be indicated several scroll size for the same work, who are both measures the.
I think the easiest way to call into the gallery where the work is (or was) yes, and ask, you are offered a job and work like listed in this gallery - if they got rid of her or she is still with them.
