Framed Art Print: Parisian Street Scene by Victor Shvaiko

The item is a framed art print, likely a giclée or offset lithograph, depicting a Parisian street scene or storefront. The print is oriented vertically, showcasing multiple levels of a building facade. The color palette is predominantly muted blues, grays, and browns, with touches of red and white providing accents. Notable features include a bicycle leaning against a wall, a large window with reflections, and a series of doors and architectural details on the lower half. The textures within the print convey a sense of aged plaster, weathered wood, and metallic elements. Text is visible on the building: 'LES GENIE DURA' is painted vertically on a blue section near the top, and 'RESTAURANT' and other indistinct text can be seen on the lower portion, suggesting commercial establishments. A small outdoor cafe table and chair, along with what appears to be a tennis racket, are depicted on the lower left, adding a narrative element. The print is set within a dark blue matte board, which in turn is housed within a gilded wooden frame. The frame has a classic profile with a visible wood grain and a rich, golden finish, showing some minor wear or patination consistent with age or handling. The overall condition appears good, with no obvious major damage to the print itself, though the resolution of the image makes it difficult to discern subtle flaws or manufacturing marks. Given the context provided, this piece is likely a work by Victor Shvaiko, known for his romantic and detailed depictions of European street scenes. The style aligns with contemporary realism with a touch of impressionistic texture, suggesting an estimated age from the late 20th to early 21st century.
