CLICK IMAGE for LARGER VIEWS A bit more news about KEMPE As of December 18, Gabreal Franklin spoke with Philip Collins of the the Kempe Society, and these 2 panels will be registered with them. Then on Jan 25, 2003, Mr.Collins wrote, saying he believes The one holding the book is by Herbert Bryans (note the Running Dog logo on the book) It has proven to always be interesting digging into the past of these kinds of art objects. For example, the panel, at the left, is indeed Kempe. A least it has a Kempe Wreath signature. Not that we disagree with Mr. Phillips either. It is facinating to unravel. Thanks to Mr. Collins, more news on this to follow. | |
