Oil painting on canvas. Signed and dated lower right. Further signature, title and handwritten declaration of authenticity on the back. Mario Cortiello, a Neapolitan painter who was a pupil of Gennaro Villani and later a friend and collaborator of Umberto Lilloni, participated with his own personal style in the renewal of Neapolitan painting, without departing from tradition. Endowed with fertile invention and remarkable representative capacity, he left behind a rich and varied production. Landscape or urban views are recurring in his production, populated by numerous figures, often, in the Neapolitan setting, by Pulcinella, depicted floating on dreamlike backgrounds, so much so that he is defined as the Neapolitan Chagall. In this painting, however, we have a lively glimpse of a Parisian street, animated by numerous figures who, in pastel colors and quick strokes, have an almost naive soul. the painting is presented in a frame.
