    It falls into the "big eye" category, so I'd guess '60s or early '70s.

    Agreed. I recall this style from my youth. Even the background color screams 60s to me.

    Isn't that the date? 1966?

    Doesn't it say 1966 underneath the signature? (As Debora points out.)

    Aquitaine Is What It IS! But NEVER BORED!

    Looks like a signature, date and NY location to me, but I could also be off....I don't know the signature either! Just showing the progression as I lightened it.....and tried to enhance the lettering....I see it was bought in Paris, but sure LOOKS like it says NY......????

    Thank you for ideas on signature and for the work aquitaine.
    I know for sure it was purchased in Paris but I guess it doesn't mean it was painted there!!
