I picked up what I thought was a beautiful old print at a garage sale last fall. I cleaned the glass and found it was dirty on the other side so I had to take it out of the frame to better clean the glass. In doing so I noticed that this really looks like an original watercolor and the black background is a powdery substance like chalk or charcoal.
There is a signature but I can’t make out one of the letters to even do a search to see if it is a known artist. So, any help would be appreciated.

Thank you SoldiersLibrary! I got an email suggesting that it might be Italian and artist name Happo. I will check into that!

Should I post a comment or an answer?
You can only post one answer, so make it count. Maybe your reply is more fitting as a comment instead?
Post an answer for:
- Replies that directly and specifically answer the original question
Post a comment for:
- "Thanks," "Me too," "I agree," or "Works for me" types of replies
- When you would like the original poster to provide more details
- When you have more to add to someone else's question or answer
