Please help identify a picture of a "patriot" (with powdered wig) reading MacBeth

Hi, karen mandak!

Would it be possible for you to post an image of the picture here? We don't guarantee results, but we can try!

Thanks!

karen mandak · Mar 16, 2009, 05:54 PM

Yes, I will take a picture and try to load it here. Thank you for responding.
Karen

Okay, that would be great!

Thanks!

I just took the photo - do you know how to load it? I have never been on this site before. I am thinking that I save it to my pictures and send it as an attachment but I will have to figure it out unless you can help?

What I do is I save images to my desktop so that they're easy for me to find. If you click on Answer this question, you'll see a lot more options of posting here. One of them will be a little paper clip at the top of the posting box. Using that is how you can upload the image.

After it's uploaded, you close the dialogue box the will have appeared and then click on the little paper clip again and click on the icon for the image to insert it. Before doing that though, you'll need to have already placed your cursor where you want the image to appear.

Thanks!

Clough,
I think I uploaded the painting - could you take a look and let me know.
Thank you!
Karen

I forgot one thing, and that is that I like to re-size the images that I load on here to 640 x 480 pixels. It's a size that seems to work well.

Thanks!

You did a great job with posting the image! I'm going to need to fix up the thread some later. Looks like we crossed paths here without knowing it! I've already deleted one of my posts that was a duplicate posted in error.

Is it the title that's MacBeth, or is that the name of the artist, please?

Thanks!

The only thing that's on the print or portrait that we can read is the book title the subject is reading. We do not know the name of the artist. Its in what appears to be an expensive frame. Its covered with paper on the rear and has a sticker from Wunderly Galleries. We really didn't want to tear of the backing unless you tell us its worth a lot of money and we should !

Clough · Mar 16, 2009, 07:10 PM

Is the paper backing really old and thin? If it is, then I don't see a problem with removing some or all of it in order to see if there's additional information under it.

Just so you know, I'm having really bad connection problems here and it's taking me literally minutes to respond and post things. I think that the solution to that is to disconnect, shutdown and re-start and return later, hopefully, when I have a better connection.

Thanks!
