Title: Water color , late 20th century W.Allen
Post by: JamesBianco on September 15, 2004, 12:35:04 PM
I have a watercolor, in a very elaborate Gilt Frame (this itself I am sure would bring hundreds) of a european street scene, with some shops, and a few people on the street. I believe it dates from the late 1800's, and bears the signature "W  Allen". At first I thought it to be Gustav Wallen, but I do not believe that now. It is strange that on one of the storefronts is the name "Benoist", a very unusual french spelling.  I can take a photograph and post it. Is anyone familiar with this artist?

Thank You
