It seems to be this oilpainting is only a fragment of whole picture. It seems to be a story of Persecution of Christians by the Romans, when they were sent to fight with the lions in colosseum. I am looking for any help and advice how can I know who is the artist of this painting. No signature in picture. I am in love with it in first sight when I saw it and I am happy to receive any help possible. Picture link is here http://antique.paradise.ee/maal.jpg
