Found this at a thrift shop a few years ago. I just love it. Did some research but I wasn't able to find any info about the artist or painting. I'm hoping someone might recognize the artist. Any info would be much appreciated! Thanks for looking!

Really beautiful painting of arched bridge & building, nice post
Since the artist seems to have listed an address, it would be even more interesting if you could do a bit of research to come up with a photograph of that building to go along with your painting.
Found him ;)

Sorry couldn't resist the joke! Kén (with an accent) seems a pretty uncommon way to spell the name, even in French. However, it does seem more common in Vietnamese, so you might start there?
Good one. If only it was that easy! Good idea with the name. I'll check it out. Thanks!
good luck! It's a lovely painting. :)
The subject of the painting is Notre Dame Cathedral, Paris.
There are many street artists so you may never know who this artist is.
I have a similar painting in red. I like yours much better. Inherited this one and it is of the same perspective of Notre Dame Cathedral but in black and red, looks creepy. Same name on back for Kén Paris, 18e. No signature on the front of mine and is in very poor condition. Grandparents picked it up on trip to Europe mid 20th century.
I believe 18e stands for 18th arrondissement i Paris better known as Montmartre. I'm not 100% sure but the address could be 32 Rue Durantin.
Maybe nice to know.
Thanks mp. Interesting and nice to know. I posted pictures of the similar painting in red on here if anyone is interested:
