Framed 'Paris: L'Arc du Triomphe' Print

The item is a framed art print depicting a Parisian street scene featuring the Arc de Triomphe and the Eiffel Tower in the background. The artwork itself is primarily monochromatic, rendered in shades of grey, black, and white, with selective, subtle touches of color, possibly yellows or reds, visible in small details such as flowers or distant figures. The scene appears to be set on a wet day, with reflections visible on the ground, suggesting rain or recent precipitation, adding depth and atmosphere. Bare trees line the street, indicating a late autumn or winter setting. Numerous street lamps are depicted, contributing to the classic Parisian ambiance. The print is housed within a gray mat, which provides a border between the artwork and the frame. The frame itself is made of wood, exhibiting a rustic, distressed, or weathered brown finish, possibly with visible grain and texture, suggesting a natural or aged aesthetic. The overall condition of the frame appears good, with no obvious major damage from the visible sections. The print is protected under what appears to be glass or acrylic glazing. The title, 'PARIS: L'Arc du Triomphe', is visible in the lower left corner of the print, suggesting it is a known work or part of a series. The quality of the printing appears good, with clear details and tonal variations. This piece combines a classic subject matter with a somewhat subdued color palette, making it a versatile decorative item.
