Antique Post-Impressionist Landsape Painting, Louis Cario, 1889-1941, France.

A lovely French painting, oil on Panel, by Post-Impressionist painter Louis Cario (French 1889-1941.)
This very evocative painting captures a streetscape at dusk, with the last rays of the sun filtering through the long shadows cast by the homes lining the street. Filled with exquisite details, including windows, mansard roofs, doors, old advertisements and over 25 figures! Signed Cario, lower left, and inscribed lower centre with a street or place name.
Framed in a beautifully carved wooden frame.
Marcel Louis Cario was born in Le Havre in June 22, 1889,  and died on February 4, 1941. He was a student of Gabriel Ferrier and Claude Monet. He was known for his seaside scenes of his native Normandy as well as his paintings of the Montmartre district of Paris.
He exhibited at the Salon des Indépendants in 1905 as well as at other exhibitions such as the Salon D'automne and the Société Nationale de Beaux Arts.
In 1928 he published a book about Eugene Boudin, a nineteenth century French painter who was one of the first to paint outdoors, heralding the future Impressionist movement.
