My comment:
(a) Cagnes-sur-Mer
http://
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cagnes-sur-Mer
( a commune of the Alpes-Maritimes department in the Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur region; the largest suburb of the city of Nice)
(b) Ipswich, Massachusetts
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ipswich,_Massachusetts
(after Ipswich in the county of Suffolk, England, the source of prominent early settlers)
Ipswich
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ipswich
(The modern name is derived from the medieval name, 'Gippeswick' (also spelt 'Gipewiz', 'Gepeswiz', or 'Gypeswiz') is probably taken from the River Gipping which is the name of the non-tidal section of the River Orwell)
(c) Frederick Carl Frieseke (1874-1939)
(d) It seems to me that Skinner Inc has an incentive to find the artwork is authentic. There is no forensic work on this painting.
