Help to read the signature
 

Canvas, maslo.1951 year, shows an area of Parizhe.Krasivaya work, but the signature does not understand mogu.Zaranee thanks!

Maybe:

H. Jutlof

I already tried, but such names generally pomoemu insignificant.

Itself a sign easily readable, especially if you know what shows the area in Paris. But still, yak, would be better if you were given and the image of the picture itself. But to learn about the artist will be more difficult.

Artist "J. Duflot". It was almost never mentioned. Mentioned on the site http://www.auction.fr/FR/vente_peint...ntmartre_.html.

But as mentioned: Ecole XXéme siècle "vue de Montmartre". Huile sur panneau, signé J. DUFLOT. 57 x 43 cm, Estimation 150/180 €. (School of XX century, "View of Montmartre", oil on canvas, signed J. DUFLOT, 57 x 43 cm, estimate 150/180 euros). That is, even the French themselves do not know who he is. Unfortunately, the site of the old, the picture is archived and available only to subscribers. But intuition tells me that it - like your author.
Apparently, the so-called "tourist art." You remember that, as he wrote Grabar, even in 1920 he was in Paris from 20 to 30 thousand (!) Artists. Of course, not everyone got into the annals of history.

Thank you very much! Your intuition is probably right, too, on my inscription'Paris place du tertre'

Paris, Paris ... He wrote thousands. That even cosmonaut Leonov artist painted "The lights of Paris" (rather than Moscow!). But still, would show the picture. So what if an artist little known, perhaps, that painting is something good. 1951, it's Paris Commissioner Maigret. Here you will read Simenon, and to look at this picture.

Here is a picture, thanks for the help and interest.

yak thanks for the picture, Amateu r right, I was there :), she bought this place, "the picture on the memory" of Parizhe, of Montmartre, where artists gather, sell pictures to tourists :)
