A framed print of this 1922 scene by French artist Utrillo was usually seen on the back wall of the Ricardo’s livingroom on I Love Lucy. However I spotted it on the bedroom wall in the same ornate frame in at least one episode as seen on the above screen grab.
Typically it is seen on the living room wall.
