Measurements are 11 3/8" by 7 3/4" **(29 cm. by 20 cm.)**, and (14 1/4" by 10 7/8" framed in a kind of shadowbox arrangement, behind glass and linen liner, in a gold leaf frame). The artist, BEDRI RAHMI EYUBOGLU (1913-1975) is well-known in his native land, Turkey, where works have sold for very large sums at auctions. Sotheby's and Bonhams have also offered his paintings.
