Spanish Impressionist school, Madrid-style?; circa 1904 - postcard message is dated '28 Octobre 1904', therefore presumably the artwork was created some time before this date. Especially given that the oil(?) paint has been overwritten, & was presumably already dry at the time The painting is executed in oils(?) on a fairly heavy-guage brown cardstock; unsigned, artist not known. The image fills the central-right portion of one side of the card, with an irregular border; overwritten with the post-card's message-content, inverse to the orientation of the image, in ink (& pencil?). Condition is generally good; some blotches, wear, & scuffing, corners slightly worn, exact original shade of the cardstock uncertain, but it was almost certainly some shade of cardboard-brown to begin with.
