This painting perfectly depicts life in Paris with its restaurants, busy streets, cafes, hotels, monuments, and wonderful architecture. The location is along the Seine river where most Bouquinistes (book sellers) set up daily. It is a trade that goes back to the Middle-Ages and is unique to Paris.

The story has it that a boat transporting loads of books sunk near Notre-Dame Cathedral.
The sailors swam ashore taking with them as many books as they could and sold them to the passersby to make up for the wages they had lost. They certainly found the sale lucrative enough to start making a regular living from it.

This lovely painting depicting life in Paris, France is signed by listed artist, Jan Gridmall and dated 1952. The artist biography has not been discovered. However, he or she certainly had a great command to colors and capturing of a mood and time.

Framed measurements: 29" W x 25 1/4" H x 2 1/4" D
