Oil painting - flowers in vase?

I have a painting in oil of a vase of flowers on a very dark background dated 1926. the artist's name looks like A Shill... something. On the reverse of the frame is a date 4 Nov 1926. Does anyone know of a still life artist from this era that could have painted it and/or if it is worth anything?Oil painting - flowers in vase?
Hi! I found these two names and of course


it may be another artist entirely. Signatures


can be so misleading. And.. there is no way


to know what your piece is worth without first


identifying the artist (or 'school') with certainty,


tracking its provenance and viewing the painting


itself for authenticity and condition. You could try


and post your image(s) here or, if not, you may want


to take it to an appraiser or an auction house for


further information.


Hope this helps!

I know of no famous painter of the 20's with that name. But if you have lived in the same area for a while maybe it was a famous local artist research at library or newspapers
