Cabin Art Appraisal

Winter Cabin Landscape Art Print by Ray N. Wenzel

This item is a framed art print depicting a peaceful winter scene. The image prominently features a rustic log cabin nestled among snow-covered pine trees, with what appears to be a smaller outbuilding to its left. The cabin has a stone chimney and a warm glow emanating from its windows, suggesting an inviting interior. A winding path or stream, partially covered in snow, leads through the foreground, bordered by a split-rail fence. The sky transitions from a soft blue-grey at the top to a warm yellow and orange on the horizon, indicating either sunrise or sunset. The snow throughout the scene is depicted with various shades of white and blue, showcasing depth and texture. The print is housed within a mat board and a visible dark-colored, likely wooden, frame. The visible signature in the lower left corner reads "Ray N. Wenzel" or "Ray R. Wenzel," beneath which another line of text, possibly a print number or title, is visible but illegible from the image. The glossy surface indicates a protective layer, likely glass or acrylic, which exhibits some reflections. The overall condition appears good, with no obvious major damage, although slight glare obscures some details. The art style is realistic and idyllic, characteristic of landscape prints popular from the late 20th century.
