Art Print 1987 Appraisal

Framed Limited Edition Restaurant Scene Art Print (1987)

This item is a framed limited edition art print, likely an etching or lithograph, depicting an interior scene of a restaurant or diner with several patrons, looking out a large window onto an exterior street scene. The image is rendered in shades of sepia or monochromatic tones, giving it a classic and somewhat warm aesthetic. The physical characteristics suggest it's printed on paper and housed within a simple, light-colored (possibly white or very light grey) mat and a thin, metallic-looking frame, which appears to be aluminum. The print itself shows a detailed composition, capturing figures engaged in conversation or dining within the foreground, while a busy street with buildings, possibly a train station or substantial historical architecture, is visible through the window in the background. Notable features include the visible edition number "140/250" on the lower left, indicating it is the 140th print out of a total of 250 in the edition. On the lower right, the year '1987' is clearly visible, dating the print. The artist's signature or name is present in the lower center, though it is not fully legible from the image provided. The print appears to be in good condition behind glass, with no immediately discernible damage such as creases, tears, or significant discoloration. The matting appears clean, and the frame shows minor reflections suggesting it's under glass. The style appears contemporary to the late 20th century, consistent with the 1987 date. The craftsmanship indicates a professional printmaking process, with fine lines and good tonal variations, suggesting quality reproduction.
