Do you know who the artist is?

Post by cff »

A client is looking to have this image re-framed with the name of the artist on a tag in the back. Thing is, the client does not know who the artist is, and the signature is illegible.

I'm hoping someone here might have seen the image and/or style before.

I didn't know Google could recognize an image! Thank you!

If you go to Google Images, you should see a camera icon in the search box. Click on the icon and Google should then ask you paste an image URL or upload an image from your computer (or drag one). You can then search for that image. When you find the image you want, it will usually give you the option to go to the page where the image is published.

If you use Chrome, right click on the image and select "Search Google for this image" from the pop-up menu"

Works well for most images, however not so well for this particular one (probably because it's on its side and a bit overexposed)


Try the Google search on the image below.

I think the default search engine has to be set to Google.

Or if you're using Mac, it's Ctrl+Click. I usually use Firefox which I don't think has that facility, unless V40 has now got it but I haven't upgraded yet from V39.
