His scenes of the New Orleans French Quarter are among the most evocative and beautiful ever done - this one being a perfect example. At the time this was painted, the French Quarter was a run-down area inhabited by bohemians and artists; this would have been in the WPA era. 17" x 18" framed, image itself is 8" x 5". Nicely framed behind UV glass; you might decide to change out the white mat as some specks have crept inside.
