Featured Horse and carriage in pathway painting

I bought this painting this morning at a yard sale for $10, I cannot make out the signature, anybody familiar with this or can figure out the artist for me ?

Thank You

Billy D.

 

I think G. Fynaert/Fijnaert.
In Dutch the i and the j are attached to make a dotted y, which signifies the pronunciation of another vowel, which doesn't occur in English.
Fijnaert is a southern Dutch name, and the subject looks southern Dutch or Flemish.

If you lived near me, I would buy it. It reminds me so much of my childhood, when we still had travelling Gypsies. Travelling by Dutch Gypsies stopped in 1969, when they all had to go to designated sites.
'Our' Gypsies (Netherlands, Belgium, parts of France) are mostly of the Sinti people, different from eastern European Roma and British Romany, but also originally from India/Pakistan.
Here they would often stay with friendly farmers during winter and take to the road again in springtime. This is a springtime painting.

The type of wagon is what we call a 'Hessenwagen'. It was originally used by traders from the German state of Hessen, and came to be used by travelling Gypsies as well.

If I had a dollar for each time @Any Jewelry was right.....

 

Great find, inh, and a gorgeous painting as well.
Billy, with that price I guess I won't be picking it up. I still love it though.

Well sort of right.... The F was a P.

 

Close enough, for it to be found!

 

Nice searching INH, Thanks so much for your time

 

You’re Welcome, Billy. It’s a very nice scene.

 

Thanks

 

Beautiful painting Billy. Good eye!
