Vintage Mid-century Offset Lithograph Print Andrew Wyeth "River Cove" 1958

This item is identified as a vintage mid-century offset lithograph print by Andrew Wyeth, titled "River Cove," and dated 1958. The print depicts a natural landscape scene, likely featuring a body of water or inlet alongside a sandy or earthy bank. The color palette appears to be muted, consisting primarily of grays, browns, and possibly dark greens or blues for the water, reflecting the artist's characteristic style. The print itself is on a light-colored paper or board, with a clear margin around the central image. While specific dimensions are not provided, it appears to be a standard size for a fine art print. Observably, the print seems to be in good condition, showing no significant tears, creases, or discoloration from the visible image. There are no obvious signs of water damage, fading, or repair. Its vintage status suggests a natural patina might be present on the paper over time, though not clearly discernible from the provided image. There are no visible maker's marks or signatures on the print itself from the angle provided, however, the artist and title are clearly indicated by the listing information. The quality of the print, as an offset lithograph, indicates a mass-produced reproduction of an original artwork, which is typical for widespread distribution of popular artists' works. The craftsmanship would be in the printing process, aiming for accurate color reproduction and detail retention from the original artwork. The year 1958 firmly places it within the mid-20th century.
