Just an absolutely beautiful mid century image of Notre Dame cathedral and the artists that sold their work in its view. Painted in the 1950s ,as you can tell from the clothing on the individuals, it depicts a post war Paris street scene.
I believe the painting is a watercolor with conte crayon. In the corner it is signed Ch Maurice in a very distinctive signature. Poor Charles Maurice, can be found on the web being called Maurice Charles, and given an assortment of birthdates relating to many other historic Charles Maurices. Which is a shame, because his work is very good. This beautifully framed painting measures 28“ x 24 in inches. The inside opening image measures 21 1/2“ x 18“. Purchased from a local estate it is in very very good condition but probably could stand to be re-matted.
