Black Bear with Two Cubs Wildlife Art Print

This item is a framed art print depicting a black bear sow with two cubs in a lush, mossy forest environment. The print is characterized by rich, earthy tones dominated by greens and browns of the moss-covered rocks and forest floor, complemented by vibrant yellow and orange maple leaves, suggesting an autumn setting. The adult bear, prominently featured in the upper right, has sleek black fur and is depicted in a relaxed, watchful pose, resting on a mossy rock. One cub is shown nestled beside the sow, while the other is standing on its hind legs, reaching up towards the sow with its front paws, creating a sense of interaction and naturalistic behavior. The texture of the bears' fur is rendered with fine detail, as are the intricate patterns of the moss, the fallen logs, and various plant life. The print appears to be housed within a frame with a thin, light green inner mat and a thicker, possibly metallic or painted, outer border in a slightly darker, muted gold or olive green hue. The print's surface indicates it might be under glass or a clear protective layer, as there are some reflections visible. The overall condition appears good with no obvious major damage, although some light wear to the frame is possible but not clearly discernible from the image. The style is highly realistic, typical of wildlife art prints commonly produced from the late 20th century to the present day. There are no visible artist signatures or edition numbers in the provided image.
