So, this is probably a longshot, but im gonna try! Sorry for the low quality, it was the 90s!

So, this is probably a longshot, but im gonna try! Sorry for the low quality, it was the 90s!

this is from a Polaroid from the mid 90s, I particularly remember seeing it and kindof being obsessed with it today. I was wondering if anyone else has seen this particular art of this man in front of what looks like a Queen? both characters are dark skinned, but i have no CLUE and image search came up entirely dry. its not a piece we kept when we moved unfortunately but I would love to find a copy of it again. thanks in advance!

Australia

“Mount Tamborine fine art and framing”, (currently in NSW) stamped on the back. was so heavy I couldn’t carry to my car so I left it but I love it so much! Couldn’t find any signature or indication of artist but it was clearly loved and framed beautifully.

Confirmed this is the correct rotation based on the hanging string on the back.

Hi!

These are (second photo in comments per rules) prints my wife took around year 2000. Since then, she has been trying to find the artist, to learn about their work and hopefully buy their art. I have used everything I can think of, tineye, reverse image searches, even all the ai tools I can think of to no avail.

I really hope someone will recognize the artist, or their highly stylized signature, or their art style.

Thanks!

Thrifted this one a while back. Any info would be appreciated

Looks like a watercolor, not a print. But seems to be numbered. Found in Australia but the map on the back appears to be German

Found thrifting several years ago, never thought to try to look up the artist.  Are they well known?

From what I can see it says "ROSANIA 1974"

Thrift Store Find

I found this at a thrift store in my city (Rockford, IL) about six years ago. I really love it, but there's no signature. I'd always assumed it was a local artist, and I've posted it around local groups to see if anyone recognizes it with no luck, but someone suggested I get a wider perspective. Thanks in advance!

Looking For A Piece Of Art And Its Original Artist

Looking For A Piece Of Art And Its Original Artist

Please excuse my crude sketch I drew with my finger on my phone.

I'm looking for a piece of art and the original artist so I can hopefully purchase a good print to hang up on the wall.

The art is a painting depicting a group of rodent like mammals dancing around in a circle around a huge t-rex skull on fire in an open grassy field. The rodents resemble the early mammals that survived the great extinction event that killed the dinosaurs.

I think the piece was called "Rise of the Mammals" but for the life of me I can't find it anywhere in my usual collections. Google was no help, giving me science articles about dinosaurs or AI generated images of dinosaurs that are on fire.

Drawing sent over from Arizona with some belongings of my FIL after he passed. He lived in the phoenix area and collected Native American artwork and artifacts. No info on this piece tho. Does anyone recognize this signature? Thanks!

Chinese painting at least 80 years old

Chinese painting at least 80 years old

Framed painting from the in-laws (based in New England, US). They remember it as far back as 80 years, but no clue on where it came from. The back of the frame is blank and I don't want to open up the frame. The signature is on the top right but I do not read Chinese. Size is roughly 2 feet by 1.5 feet. Appreciate any help and hints.

Found in my grandparents loft, seems old but not sure what it is

The canvas is almost like a linen seems pretty old. The name on the back is someone named pissarro or something probably means more to anyone but not me I have no idea about this stuff. Thank you in advance

Help identifying pencil signature on hand colored etching. Paris L'Eglise Saint-Pierre de Montmartre, early 20th century

I have a hand colored etching titled "PARIS L'EGLISE SAINT-PIERRE DE MONTMARTRE" with Sacre Coeur visible in the background. It is pencil signed in the lower right margin below the plate. The signature appears to be a single flowing cursive word, possibly starting with C or G.

The style and subject are consistent with Paris Etching Society prints from the 1910s to 1930s. The frame and mat suggest mid 20th century American framing.

I'm trying to identify the artist. Attaching a close up of the signature and a full image of the piece.

Can anyone help identify this signature?

Very large floral

I was curious about this painting. I was told it has some linkage to Napoleon but not sure what exactly and wanted to see if anyone knew of its creator or if it really does have links to Napoleon. I can’t get a picture of the back because it’s on a wall and is very large; Im afraid I may damage it trying to do so. (No banana but a miller lite for scale)
