Fabulous oil painting of a Parisian scene by M Church.
Measures 75 x 105 cm.
Housed in its original gilt frame which has some minor losses but nothing drastic.
A mid century tourist piece dating to around 1950, this is typical of post war style.
A stunning large painting that will look super in a contemporary home.
