A somewhat enlarged image can be found at the only work, by this artist, so far, to appear in Mr. Melcher’s blog (yesterday). Again, it is a cropped image (no lower left signature). A full, larger image can be found here.Bing translates the title as The Hot Hand. It isn’t, as far as I can tell, currently shown online by its current-location (other than pointing to its page at that full image website).It is representative of naïve art. The artist’s Wikipedia page. The Google translated French Wikipedia page lists several of his other works.First work, by this artist, to appear here.

Y’know even seeing the title of this one doesn’t give me the remotest clue about what’s going on….
