    I picked this fellow up at a thrift store in Indiana. I love the mystery of old portrait paintings. The painting appears to be oil on canvas glued to a board. The whole thing measures 11 X 14 inches. While there is a signature, I've had no luck figuring it out. No other writing or other identifying information on the back. Any guesses?

      Interesting.

      Thanks for the ideas! I was hoping maybe there was something obvious I had just missed, but probably not. A puzzle for sure. At least it's fun to guess :)
