Dear Glenis,

Thank you for your additional images. Excuse the late answer but because of a technical issue, we didn't receive the new images. Sadly I have to ask you again for more detailed and focused images of the signature. Thank you!

With best regards,
Georg

Hi Georg thank you for replying Here is more photos & measurements from length & width of frame & from length & width of picture. I hope these photos help? My phone doesn't take the best of photos, but if you require more photos you might be able to give me a few tips on how to get better photos. Ok kind regards Glenis Hinge

Dear Glenis,

Thank you for the additional images and your patience. Sadly this drawing remains as a puzzle. This is probably a pastel drawing on paper. The motif is hidden in a sfumato effect. That means the pastel drawing is blurred with the fingertip and the motif could be a sitting man. The drawing is signed and dedicated with fainted letters. The dedication could be read as "Voor Lucia Ikin de Brauw" the signature as "Lou... V?ay". At least the dedication is a hint that this drawing was made in the Netherlands 1959.
An estimation would be between 30 to 60 AUD.
This estimation is based on actual recent past recorded auction sales of comparables. Retail "asking prices" can be higher and vary.

With best regards,
Georg

Dear Glenis,

you are very welcome! Try to read it by holding the paper against a light or with UV light. Perhaps the letters will appear stronger.

With best regards,
