N2  - The signing of a work of art considered under the legal angle raises several series of questions. First it must be associated with the birth of the piece. What effect is attached to signing? If that act generally signals that the work is finished, it doesn’t necessarily means that the author wishes to display it to the public. Finishing, displaying, these two moments, even intimately related, don’t always coincide. And the fact of displaying,, as evidence of the author’s will, is a determining factor in the legal status of the work.
