His works are included in the Museums of Fine Art Boston and Harvard Art Museums. Oil on canvas. Signed. This particular piece has extensive gallery & exhibition information on the back.

The remaining paper is a card that reads "Oil Paintings Modern, Barbizon, and Old Masters from the Estate of Mrs. Nathan L. Amster Sold by Order of Leonard and James Amster and from others". There is also a partial page of a gallery catalog that shows that this painting was exhibited alongside a Pablo Picasso. Framed behind glass in a gorgeous gilt wood frame. Wire hanger on the back. The U.S.A., circa 1920s. Excellent condition of the artwork, some loss to the gilt on the frame.
