Framed "Creperie Restaurant" Street Scene Print

This item is a framed art print depicting a charming, illuminated European street scene. The central focus is a "CREPERIE RESTAURANT" with two striped awnings (one red and white, one green and white) extended over its windows. The facade appears to be made of rustic stone or brick, bathed in warm light emanating from within the establishment and possibly from street lamps. In the foreground, an outdoor dining setting is visible, featuring a small round table draped with a yellow tablecloth and two classic bistro chairs. To the left, an easel holds a menu board, adding to the cafe ambiance. Overhead, vines with clusters of small white flowers trail along the building. The overall color palette is warm, with dominant tones of browns, oranges, yellows, and reds, contrasted with the darker greens and blues of the night sky or shadowed areas. The print is housed within a substantial black frame, which appears to be made of wood or a composite material, featuring a simple, clean profile. Inside the black frame, there is a golden accent trim, and then a wide, matte brown or earth-toned mat board that frames the print itself. The print is likely covered by glass or acrylic, which shows some reflective glare in the image, suggesting its protective nature. The visible condition appears good, with no obvious damage to the print itself or the frame, although precise details of wear are obscured by the image quality and reflections. The style is common for decorative prints intended to evoke a cozy, European cafe atmosphere, likely dating from the late 20th century to early 21st century.
