Item: 9 1/2" x 7 1/2" oil on board depicting Parisian street scene, signed lower left illegibly. Undated, but judging from the style and apparent age of the materials used, I would estimate it at circa 1965. Although the subject matter is European (Paris), I believe this painting to have been done by an American, rather than a French, artist. The markings on the reverse would confirm this. Depictions of Parisian street scenes were at their height of popularity in the 1950s and 1960s, when the American economy and the tourist trade in Europe were booming. These paintings have seen a resurgence in the art market recently, as the Parisian street scenes of Antoine Blanchard, among others, have been rapidly rising in value. Because of this, your painting has a good deal of decorative value, but is limited due to its smaller size. It's a great little gem.
