    Howdy folks, looking for your thoughts regarding these two Impressionist cityscape/street scenes paintings of Paris. Subjects include The Moulin Rouge and Montmartre. Signatures at the bottom right of each that were partially cut off. They measure 4⅞” X 3⅞”.
    Thanks!

    They look like hand colored prints, maybe not even hand colored. From the cars in one, I'd guess 1960s/'70s.

    I wouldn't call the style Impressionist. And could well be street art. Any labels, stickers or handwritten notations on back?

    Agreed @Debora these are not Impressionistic in style or circa.

    I agree with the date, and probably street art.
    In Dutch we call these charming souvenirs 'Parijsjes', which means little Parises, as if it was a genre all its own.;)
    Moulin Rouge and Sacré Coeur were favourites. Probably still are.
