    My book says "ciel, heaven or sky", "deuil, mourning". French Canadian? Very similar to Spanish, "cielo".

    Hi,

    Thank you very much. I thought that the Corneille, Fr was the artists name with a 72. Maybe the first line is the artist name, something with Carr?

    Thanks for the info,

    I too think that the artist and year are the last line, based on tradition.
