This is driving me crazy. we have an old painting or Etching from the Napoleonic War. the painting was done by C. Wolff. I can not find anything about this person. all i know is that the painting was handed down by a friend who passed away. She was 104 yrs old. She said in the painting was her Great, great grandfather who was polish and faught this war.. it is an amazing painting. the painter sounds german. a few things on this painting.. bernauer str 14 berlin, n.... cu (or ii ) rufsier.... einigkeit...and macht stark.
i have no clue what these mean but when i do searches, everything goes to music? I do not know where to find an art historian for this kind of work. im lost.
if a pic would help i can provide it.

Its not a print. It is original. The man in the painting is her grandfather. It is a one of a kind painting. I am just trying to find out who the painter was.

Depends where you live. But all is not lost check with Christies auction house online and they can help you evaluate the painting.
