Blossom Print Appraisal

Framed Blackberry & Blossom Botanical Print

This item is a framed botanical print, likely a reproduction of a watercolor or similar medium, featuring a cluster of blackberries, their leaves, and white blossoms. The print itself is rectangular, oriented vertically, and depicts a vibrant assortment of dark reddish-purple berries, green leaves with noticeable veining, and delicate white five-petal flowers at the top-center. The background of the print shows subtle washes of light green, peach, and yellow, giving it an airy, illustrative quality. A faint signature, possibly 'Jules Lemon' or similar, is visible in the lower right corner of the print, suggesting it might be a known artist's work, or at least an artist signature on the original art from which this print was made. The print is housed within a dark green mat, which provides a pleasing contrast and depth to the artwork. The entire piece is enclosed in a dark reddish-brown wooden frame with a classic profile, featuring a raised inner lip with a thin gold-colored fillet, a central flat band, and an outer beveled edge. The frame appears to be in good condition overall, though some minor dust or debris is visible on the mat and glass, particularly in the upper left quadrant. The construction of the frame seems sturdy, and the wood grain is visible through the finish, indicating a natural material. The style of the botanical illustration and frame suggest a late 20th-century aesthetic, possibly from the 1970s to 1990s. The craftsmanship of the print itself, particularly the fine detail in the berries and leaves, points to a good quality reproduction, even if the primary materials are common for mass-produced decorative art.
