      Hi, Dbinkley. :-)

      I realize that you probably didn't deliberately add an upside down close-up of the artist signature to your post (weird image orientation is a known software bug at Collectors Weekly).

      I downloaded a copy so that I could rotate it 180 degrees to try to decipher it.

      FWIW, it looks to me like "HL BERT."

      It seems more logical to me if it says "Albert".
      I personally think that the signature is a fantasy name and that the painting was made in one of the assembly line art studios somewhere in the world.

      I agree with mp.kunst....I have seen many paintings like this...they were churned out as you said by an assembly line of artists overseas painting scenes of paris or italy and names were made up and placed on them....they were everywhere in the 70's and eighties...my mother has one of a street scene in paris..they are still quite pretty.. burnett was another fictional name they used a lot...

      Sorry that came up twice the website keeps glitching and doing that...

      mp.kunst, leesa3242, I quite agree that this could be a sample of of a mass-produced painting, and the signature, whether it's HL BERT, or Albert or something else might not be the actual name of whoever painted the original.

      And yes, the glitchy behavior of the CW website is quite frustrating.
