Campbell Art Appraisal

Portrait of Jesus Christ by John Campbell (Framed Print)

This item is a framed art print depicting Jesus Christ, notably showing him with darker skin tones and hair, deviating from traditional Western portrayals. The print features a bust-style portrait, with Jesus looking slightly upwards and to the right of the viewer. His long, dark hair cascades over his shoulders, and he has a full beard and mustache. The eyes are a prominent feature, appearing deep-set and luminous. He is dressed in what appears to be a white tunic with a red or maroon garment draped over one shoulder, indicated by folds and color discernible in the lower left portion of the image. The background is a soft, warm hue, possibly ochre or a light brown, with some subtle texture or brushstrokes visible. The print is housed in a dark brown, possibly wooden, frame with a simple, flat profile. There's a visible reflection from a light fixture in the upper left corner of the glass or laminate covering the print, indicating it's behind a protective layer. A signature, 'John Campbell', is clearly visible in the lower right portion of the print, suggesting the original artist. The overall condition appears good, with no obvious signs of significant damage to the print itself. The frame shows some minor wear consistent with age and handling, such as slight scuffs or dust, but no major chips or cracks are immediately apparent. The craftsmanship of the print appears to be of standard commercial quality, typical for mass-produced art prints. Given the style and subject matter, it likely dates from the late 20th or early 21st century, often found in homes or religious settings.
