Description: 15" x 12" (inside dimensions) wood framed lithograph, signed by Herbelot. There are no numbers shown. You can see this was a line drawing with color added later. This has not been appraised nor authenticated but seems to fit all the criteria. Frame has small amount of white paint on one corner. One sign in the pic says "Cafe de la Paix".HERBELOT: The street painter/artist famous for Parisian street scenes. Herbelot was only a pseudonym, his real name is somewhat unknown.Herbelot was active in Paris around the period from 1940 to 1960.Herbelot first made rough on site street sketches; these were unsigned and bear only the location name. These sketches were later reproduced in his studio ready for litho reproduction prints. It is the lithograph prints and the oleo prints (line drawings with the colours added later) which bear his "Herbelot" identity and issue numbers.The originals of which there would be two, firstly the street sketch and subsequently the Lithograph master for reproduction with the added identity.The original water colour street sketches are the most inspiring as they have hidden depth that is lost when the sketches are finalized on Lithographic plates.Lithograph reproduction was the intention, producing many copies of desirable scenes to sell to tourists. The lithograph process produced a finished article that was comparable to a water colour original.
