Picture you nice, but the signature inspires doubt. Alexandre-Gabriel Decamps (1 803 - 1 860) on oil paintings signed in capital letters "DECAMPS" (see invested. 1), watercolors, sometimes monogrammed "DC". Usually it is a signature (for example, invested. 2) also is similar to that in your picture. That if you Dean?

Amateur, appears on the basis of signatures findartinfo, the dean was also an option of writing a signature in small letters. However, it differs somewhat from the version presented here.

Still, I tend to think that the real work.

That Does Dean you?

Dear Amateur, to be honest, I do this signature Deka H but I can not identify and do not understand how the transformation takes place .
But you will agree academic landscape is resolved in a romantic manner, professionally executed, the state of edges and the paint layer does not look new and even 100-year-old, frame quality with a stamp shop, and finally - the signature is present. Other Deans not find .
So it is - that is, indeed, Alexander - Gabriel! The logic is clear ?
John Preston, thanks for the kind words! Photos sent.

I do this to provide the signature of the Deccan can not and do not understand how the transformation takes place.

It's all very simple: name "Decamps" is pronounced it sounds like "Dean", so it is written and in Russian.

Other Deans not found.
So it is - it is the same Alexander - Gabriel! Logic clear?

No, you have the logic impaired. The fact that you have not found of other artists by the name of Decamps (in Russian, Dean), logically does not follow that they do not. And they - are! And it seems to me that the author of your paintings - French painter Albert Dean (Albert Decamps, 1862 - 1908). He often signed just "A. Decamps". And even though the embedding signature is visible is not very good, it is more similar to the one that in your picture than the signature of Alexandre-Gabriel Decamps.

I agree, the signature looks like, but the other way.
