Forest Has Eyes Appraisal

Bev Doolittle 'The Forest Has Eyes' Print

This item is a framed art print titled "The Forest Has Eyes" by Bev Doolittle. The print is presented in a horizontal format within a light brown, possibly oak, wooden frame that appears to have a simple, flat profile. The print itself is matted, likely with a dark blue or deep teal color, suggesting depth and contrast with the artwork. The print is notable for its 'hide-and-seek' style, typical of Doolittle's work, where camouflaged elements (presumably horses and Native American figures, based on the artist's known themes) are integrated into a rocky, forested landscape. The print appears to be split into two main sections by the matting, creating a diptych-like presentation, although it is one continuous image. A small brass or gold-colored plaque, likely identifying the artist and title, is affixed to the bottom center of the matboard. The print is protected by glass, which reflects some ambient light, but no significant scratches or cracks are visible on the glass. The frame itself shows minimal signs of wear; however, without closer inspection, it's hard to ascertain any specific damage. The construction appears sturdy, and the wood grain is discernible. The overall condition seems good, fitting for a print that is likely from the late 20th or early 21st century, given Bev Doolittle's active period. The craftsmanship of the framing appears professional, enhancing the presentation of the art.
