Hello, I got this oil painting five years ago and I would love to find out the history of it. I recently received a few pieces from family members and truefully I have no clue. People have offered me money for the one painting, but I don't want to sell this until I find out the history, its so lovely, and a nice size painting. Can some one please help me out? The signature says Rafael

Don't know but it's a beautiful painting

Something tells me for you not to sell it yet! You will have to take it to a professional... I tried Google, Yahoo, and a whole bunch of ways but can't find anything... thing is this Spanish painting is familiar and I am not sure why. Let us know what you discover!
