I have an unsigned oil painting of a scotsman It was found in an antique shop. Any ideas of price or artist?

The scotsman is holding the ladies hand and there is a lake and mountains in the background. It looks rather old but is in good condition. Does anyone have any ideas who the artist might be or who I could contact to find out?I have an unsigned oil painting of a scotsman It was found in an antique shop. Any ideas of price or artist?
This is a visual question and needs a visual clue to answer it. Post a picture or a link to it. you will also need to give some dimensions. What makes you believe the subject is Scottish? His clothing? What is the lady waring? Full figures? To give you a decent answer we need more. Was it sold to you wholly without info ? post something in the further info section.I have an unsigned oil painting of a scotsman It was found in an antique shop. Any ideas of price or artist?
Contact a local auction house or art museum ask if you can send a picture of it or take it in for an appraisal.
Unsigned?.... Ha! Good luck!





What style is painted in? Realism, abstract, impressionist? What kind of paint is it? Oil, acrylic, watercolour?





Different styles were in different times, as were paints.





What kind of elements dose the painting use? Line, texture, colour, shape, tone?





What about compositional elements?





All these things will give you clues to where, when, and who painted your painting. Mybe, its from scotland?
