Deer Artwork Appraisal

Framed Deer Print

The item is a framed print depicting a deer. The print features a close-up, head-and-shoulders view of a deer with prominent antlers, suggesting it is a buck. The deer's fur appears brown, and its eyes are visible. The background is rendered in shades of blue and white, possibly indicating a snowy or wintery scene, or perhaps an abstraction of foliage in muted tones. The antlers are a focal point, displaying significant size and branching. The print is housed within a matted frame. The matboard appears to be a neutral, light brown or beige color, providing a border between the artwork and the frame. The frame itself is made of wood, exhibiting a dark reddish-brown or mahogany finish. There are visible signs of wear on the frame, including scuffs, scratches, and some lighter marks, particularly along the edges and corners, suggesting it has been handled or stored without extreme care. The glass covering the print shows some reflections, indicating it is likely standard glass rather than non-glare. The age of the piece is difficult to pinpoint precisely without maker's marks or signatures, but the style of framing and the deer motif suggest it could be from the late 20th century, possibly 1980s or 1990s. The quality of the print itself is not fully discernible, but the overall presentation is typical of mass-produced decorative wall art. No specific artist signature or edition number is visible in the provided image.
