----------------------------Original message---------------------------- The Witt Library has a small file on this artist - so small in fact it includes only one work - Funerailles Merovingiennes - a cutting from a Sotheby New York sale 28th Feb 1990 lot 232 - where it is described as signed and dated Anvers 1899 oil on canvas 118 1/2 x 78 1/2 inches - ( a BIG picture !) offered in catalogue at estimated US $30,000 -40,000. Could this be the same picture that you are being offered ? - The illustration is in colour. If you cannot trace the catalogue I could post you a colour photocopy of the entry - I would need your full postal address. Hope this helps, Cathie Gordon.
