Crikey, have I killed the thread? Perhaps I shouldn't have picked such a stinker.
Clue Two: the painting hangs in the Hungarian National Gallery in Budapest.
Hello..? Hello..? Echo!
Seriously guys, I'm running out of clues.
Clue three: the painting is 19th century.
Hello Lokasenna,
This is just me talking, but I wouldn't fret too much about the lack of response within a day. For me personally, it is difficult to find a block of time to search due to work, etc.
It seems that the avareage time between clues is about two days.
Of course, that's entirely up to you.
BTW, I spent a little time last night on your painting.

I'm likely to be in Budapest the week after next. It may be that I'll actually have to go and look for the damn thing.
It's Tivadar Alconiere. Is that much enough?Quote:

Mark,
Looks like your image was removed from photobucket, however I recall the picture from a brief glance earlier this morning.
