The artwork was part of the "XXXVIII SALON" (38th Salon) of the "CERCLE ARTISTIQUE ROYAL LITTERAIRE" (Royal Artistic and Literary Circle) in 1965. Jean Maucourant (1921-2005) was associated with this artistic circle, especially active in the Charleroi region of Belgium.
Artist's Residence: The label indicates the artist resided at 199 B. Taiy Street in Montignies. This likely refers to Montignies-sur-Sambre, a sub-municipality of Charleroi, Belgium, further aligning with the information about Maucourant's origins.
History
The Cercle royal artistique et littéraire ("Royal Artistic and Literary Circle") was founded in Brussels on 23 November 1848. The Cercle de la Toison d'Or ("Circle of the Golden Fleece") was founded in Brussels on 23 December 1911, and its name was changed to the Cercle Gaulois ("Gallic Circle") on 13 June 1919. The Cercle Gaulois became the Cercle royal Gaulois ("Royal Gallic Circle") by authorisation of King Leopold III on 16 February 1937. In 1950, the Cercle royal Gaulois merged with the Cercle royal artistique et littéraire and changed its name to the Cercle royal Gaulois artistique et littéraire ("Royal Gallic Artistic and Literary Circle").
Besides all that AI information, this is painting has a very Mad Men vibe, the frame is faux bois painted metal, looks like wood. Great for a moody bar area, a study, etc.
