  Dear Denise,  
Congratulations because you are doing a wonderful job with this artist.  I like your website.  
I found this painting during one of my purchasing expeditions around Florida in a corner of an antique store and with the original glass broken.  
I think that the seller did not notice it's high quality or maybe thought it was a print.  He told me the painting came from a local estate in Naples.  
I must admit that I am a little confused with your information.  The reason is because I found the surname "Theolsegoux" in Davenport's ...but I do not know if Theo Gegoux used a seudo-name...I think that this will be part of your research...I also feel that the style is close..and also the date.  
Please, do not hesitate to email me at your convenience.  
Regards,  
Daniel
