French School - Au café, circa 1920s–1950s

French School, early to mid-20th century Au café, circa 1920s–1950s Watercolor, ink and wash on paper, unsigned. Matted in a wooden black frame. Dimensions: 14 1/2 × 18 1/2 in. This lively sketch depicts an intimate interior scene with two figures: a man leaning over a table or counter and a seated woman gesturing, rendered with fluid lines and delicate washes of color. The quick, expressive style captures a moment of everyday social interaction with charm and spontaneity typical of early 20th-century French illustration.
