<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Alec Sutton, post: 36921, member: 80&quot;]In the 1950s and 60s paintings were produced for sale emulating 18th &amp; 19th C. scenes. They were sold as prints in schlock art shops, each framed with a brass plaque with a credible sounding French or Italian [artist&#039;s] name.</p><p><br /></p><p>These are still for sale in some retail venues and appear on eBay from time to time.</p><p><br /></p><p>I think this is one of them. Nothing to do with artist Louis Cabaillot-LaSalle. Not a fake as such.</p><p><br /></p><p>One can see from the small bit of facture visible in the close up that the painting is almost certainly 20th Century.</p><p><br /></p><p>My guess is the hand signature was added later.</p><p><br /></p><p>Of course, without much better photos it&#039;s best to reserve final judgement.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
