Nestor Fruge (1916-2012) was a New Orleans born American postwar & contemporary impressionist painter and an iconic artist of the French Quarter. This original signed & dated (1975) watercolor on paper is a fine example of his style and in excellent condition. The image is beautifully framed by a light-blue matte, The scene depicts a bustling street with a horse-drawn carriage riding into the distance, an iconic French Quarter lamp post stands off to the left near a bright red awning. The nearest buildings stand foreboding and powerful; yet the most interesting detail just may be the outlined mother and daughter in the lower left watching the viewer/artist intently. The artwork is signed "N Fruge 75" in the lower right corner. Taped to the back of the frame is the address of both his home & studio at the time. DIMENSIONS: Artwork: 10.5" x 15" Framed: 16" x 20"
