I would read the "signed and dedicated to the artist RB" as if it were given to that artist as a gift?

looking at RB's pictures I wouldn't have 'thought' it was his style. If you look at Robert Bevan images there is one pencil sketch of 'Breton peasants' the same spareness in line isn't there don't think?

Hi Jude I had a look a few days ago, interesting that the seller mostly sells coins and cameras, but does put in random things so I suspect he goes to auctions and buys odd bits that are interesting also.

This is a good site for looking at pics that have gone through auctions

I wonder when that was framed, it's not contemporary is it?

Go on Jude, jump in, you may not see another for ages. It could be part of your....dare I say it? Christmas present.
