Dear David,

Thank you for contacting Mearto with your appraisal inquiry.

The presented object appears to be a mixed media artwork on paper with the measurements of 24 x 20 inches. The artwork depicts a geometrical motif that reminds of the famous artist Frank STELLA (1936) and appears to be signed with his name. Nor the style, the quality of the composition neither the handwriting is comparable to authenticated artworks by Frank STELLA (1936).
Works by this artist were recently offered and sold on the international auction market.
This piece is in good condition and there is no serious damage visible in the images provided.
These arguments classify this artwork as a forgery.

With kind regards,
Georg
