Vintage oil on canvas painting by the renowned Spanish artist, Jose Luis Leiva (1926-2018), capturing a vibrant and impressionistic view of a bustling Parisian street of Place du Tertre Paris, with the iconic Basilica of the Sacré-Cœur majestically rising in the background. This is a fine example of Impressionism, with a strong use of impasto, and is stylistically consistent with the broader Post-Impressionist movement. Leiva's signature style is on full display, characterized by his liberal use of thick, textured impasto, which gives the painting a rich, three-dimensional quality. The energetic brushwork and vivid colors—with brilliant blues, golds, and reds—perfectly evoke the lively atmosphere of the Montmartre district. The reflections on the damp street surface add to the charm and depth of the scene. The back of the canvas is inscribed with a handwritten note in German, "gekauft im August 1991 in Paris," which translates to "bought in August 1991 in Paris." This inscription provides a clear provenance, confirming its origin and vintage. The painting comes ready to hang in its original, elegant gold-colored frame. A true collector's piece for anyone who appreciates fine art, Parisian culture, or the unique style of Jose Luis Leiva. 13.75"H x 11.75"L x 1.75"D Canvas: 10"H x 8"W
