Take a look on ebay at this, Phillip was my uncle. Can you see anything wrong with the 2 images??

I have had a look Jude but wouldn't know if there was anything wrong as I am not an expert. Do you think it is genuine. strange there have been a few Meninsky drawings appearing lately isn't it?

Looks to me as if the sun is in the wrong place on one of the images.

I know nothing about paintings though.

EDIT - it's probably just the flash from the camera that I'm looking at, lol.

Kath.......thats what l was thinking. The big one in the main image is (l think) the flash from camera, but the one on image of signature does'nt look right, l can't see it in the main picture.....does that make sense. Also the signature should show up in that corner when you make the image bigger....and it does'nt.:((( or am l missing something??

Doh...its probably the flash on both images....ok sorted:))))

The corner where the signature should be just looks blurred when I make the picture bigger.

Jude I have enlarged as far as possible on 'my pictures' and there is a signature there on the main picture. but is too out of focus to read, but it is in the 'right place' I think.
