Description
I will mention first that this fabulous painting has a 4" tear just above the signature on lower left. Easily restored or enjoy as is since it is not noticeable while hanging on the wall. Notice the writing on the back of the frame as shown in close-up photo. It appears to have been written in by the artist (notice the letter P in the signature and in the description)
Stunning French Oil painting depicting a street scene in Place du Terte A Palette knife technique representing an impressionistic style. A history of Place du Tertre
The Montmartre square can be found a stone's throw away from the Sacré-Coeur Basilica and dates all the way back to the 12th-century when the square lay at the very heart of the Benedictine Montmartre Abbey.
The ecclesiastical complex was established by King Louis VI in 1133 and thrived for centuries until the French Revolution at the end of the 18th-century. Place du Tertre itself was first opened to the public in 1635 as the central square for the village of Montmartre.
