Street scene painting in Brussels

Oil painting depicting a narrow street or alley in Brussels, with houses and a small grocery stall featuring two ladies. The painting is signed F. Jorwitz. Ferdinand Jorwitz was a painter who lived in Belgium (1897 - 1979). He painted landscapes, still lifes, and flowers. He often depicted the Brabant landscape in a melancholic manner and the old districts of Brussels. Frequently, his still lifes feature dark backgrounds and soft, faded tones. The painting is framed in a 1950s-1960s style frame with glass. The painting likely dates from the mid-century as well. The frame is signed on the back: Impasse des Quatre-Livres, Brussels. Condition: wear consistent with age and use.
