G.a. Howland : The Mussels Of Bercy 1947

It is strange that with such a modernity, this painter is as little known! I found an American namesake came to France, but he died in 1926 ...
Now, Americans often have the same name as their father by differentiating by the initial of the middle name.
The subject, the Grands moulins de Paris, located on the quai de Bercy at the time, dominates the Seine in an extraordinary extraordinary palette, with very modernist stylized trees ...
HST 55 X 46 cm, monogrammed and dated VII 1947, annotated on the back with the address of the artist, mounted in its original frame a little rugged broad Marie-louise 86 X 76 cm.
A small restoration very well done in the middle.
