    Would like to identify artist of old painting
    I am interested in finding out who the artist of this painting might be. Nothing on the painting itself is legible as a signature to me, and there are no markings on the back of the framed painting or on the frame itself.

    I have only a few clues. This painting was my grandma's and is at least 45 years old, and could be 75 years old or more. The artist may be from old Bohemia in the Czech Republic, because that is where my grandmother originally immigrated from.

    Thank you for your time and your help.

    Hi, deestreasures!

    I saved, enlarged, brightened up and sharpened your image. Even then, I see no evidence of a signature.

    Perhaps the signature might be concealed by a portion of the frame?

    Thanks!
