Fishing Boats town painting and has been restored in20th century French school oil on wood. The work has texture to the touch. A lovely small scale lively marine scene, with colorful masts and boats in a port, under a moon. This small painting has strong brushstrokes, and great bright organic colors. The painting itself is in great condition except for some hairline cracks in the canvas (not at risk of deteriorating further), which show the age of the piece. The frame is not an original antique.
