    The company was registered 1961 so I guess the piece is from about the 60's/70's?
    The signature looks like Benet, right?
    Any idea of the location?
    Thanks

    Wild guess, since Catalina Island is on my mind. (Just read an article that Catalina Island will probably be sunk in *gasp* three million years! Tsunami Alert! Worry and wring hands. LOL!).

    A view of one of the California Channel Islands from the mainland?

    Thanks.
    I can access the link. The sellers says it is a French artist but not with certainty. So, could be California islands or European ones.
    He also says that the style is influenced by Levier. It kinda look familar to me.

    Dead tree in foreground. Not so much Med. Also bleak colors. North Sea?

    It reminds me of that depressing industrial era, like Ben Shahn. Dreary.
