French or European school of the mid-20th century.

Unframed: approximately 33 × 42 cm
With frame: 39 × 48 cm
Depth: approximately 4 cm
Work signed bottom right in black paint.
Technique:
ol on canvas with knife work and substantial textural material.
Condition:
generally good condition. Presence of a slight network of surface micro-cracks and a patina consistent with the age of the work. Some small wear and traces normal on the frame. No significant lifting of material observed.
Old frame included.
Provenance:
private collection.

Stylistic remarks:
The painting shows a very expressive handling of the material, characteristic of certain decorative and European semi-expressionist productions of the mid-20th century. The energetic knife stroke and relief effects give a strong visual and luminous presence to the whole.
