Deciphering The Signature on Drawing

[Ipcress]

I’d have said John Pr******.

There are some artist databases which let you search with wildcards, so you just search for names starting John P

Thanks Ipcress...I'll try that.

If the angle /slant is consistent and the Christian name starts with D, then what follows ? Does anyone flick the end of their letter Ns like that ? Dan seems unlikely but then do does Dom

[DANTE5]

I had once thought the surname could begin with a "D"  Dr........?? Dre........

BTW.... Ipcress...I am assuming this drawing is signed by artist twice.  In black ink and silver ink.  What's your take on that?   I removed it from the frame an it looks truly original to me.  It feels original to me but I did not look for watermark (Ooops), that would be necessary for further research.

My primary concern is name of artist. Thanks for dialogue!

[DANTE5]

I agree with the Pr....Prea?.....

Is it watercolor or done on canvas ??  I assumed it was a pen and ink with watercolor !!

[DANTE5]

Mart........It looks like pencil.  It is not on a canvas, it is paper.

[Ipcress]

It’s a print of the original, the print then signed again in silver marker.

Dantes, the kicker here is "07" in the dark lettering.  These days that could be 1907 or 2007....but should help with the search.

The first letter looks like a cursive G to me....
