Chances are it is a reproduction, that is a reprint of an older painting!. You can take the painting to a museum or art dealer to provide you with information!. Best of luck!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Get English lessons and call a local art dealer and later an auction house!. And one does not publish a painting and paintings are paintings and not paintWww@QuestionHome@Com
