The correct answer is: In an expert's opinion, it might or may be the work of...

When a painting is advertised as "bears signature," it means that the painting contains a signature that may or might not belong to the original artist. This term suggests that in an expert's opinion, the signature on the painting could potentially be the work of the artist whose signature it bears, but there is also the possibility that it is not authentic. This phrase indicates uncertainty and implies that further investigation or confirmation is needed to determine the true origin of the signature on the painting. Therefore, option D is the correct answer.
