Do you recognise this painting?

I think the signature could be that of Henricus Gerardus De Korte (aka Hennie or Henni De Korte), a Dutch painter born in 1941. He signed his paintings as H.G. de. Korte. A google search for other paintings by him will give you some signatures that you can compare with the painting you have.

I don't recognise it but it is a lovely painting.

I've enhanced the signature which may help someone to recognise it, but I don't.

Personally, I doubt it is worth anything because most paintings really aren't and this one isn't the best painted or of a particularly desirable subject. Of course, attribution can vastly alter levels of desirability :rotfl:

Another doubt in my mind is whether or not it is actually an original. Obviously, pictures on the web show a limited story but, apart from the vertical ones created by the varnish, you'd expect to see signs of brush strokes showing through and obvious depth in the paint. These pictures show none of that. Which makes me wonder whether it is actually an oleograph. (I'm more than happy to be proven wrong.)

Good luck with the on going hunt.
