Title: Artist Identification Signature
Post by: DANTE5 on May 30, 2015, 11:40:24 AM

Hi everyone,

I need help with the name of artist whose signature is pictured below.  I have a print with this signature but can not do any research without name of artist.  I've included a great photo of one of his signature and a photo of my print with signature but with the date of 1872 on it.  I got the image of the signature online but the name was not available without paid membership.  Thanks in advance.

The link is below.

I am not really sure if it will have the artist name or not because it is considered indiscernible, could be HJL, HLJ, LJH etc.

They've got that wrong.

It's Henri Le Jeune ( 1819 - 1904 )

WOW!! That is terrific! THANK YOU! I also had it wrong thinking the surname began with a "H".  Great job! I now can research print.  I adorn this print and would like to know more about the artist.  Thanks again.
