Dear James,
Thank you for your contacting Mearto with your appraisal inquiry.
The item presented appears to be an oil painting on canvas, possibly from 1934 (date mentioned on the reverse and possibly executed in Bordeaux (BX) ). It measures 16 (h) x 20 (w) inches. The work is signed on the lower right by the artist. It depicts a Parisian scene with the river Seine. It comes in an ornate wooden frame, and the condition appears to be excellent overall.
Unfortunately, I had some trouble deciphering the artist's signature. I've tried many variations, but without success, I am afraid.
Therefore, the estimate provided is based on recent auction estimates and similar paintings without artist attribution, dating from the 1900s to the 1950s. The current condition (based on photographs provided) has been taken into consideration when determining the estimate.
Best regards,
Karine
