Framed Aerial Campus View Print By Richard Remmes Jr Appraisal

Framed Aerial Campus View Print by Richard Remmes Jr.

This item is an framed art print, likely a giclée or offset lithograph, featuring an aerial view of a grand collegiate or institutional campus. The artwork captures a long, tree-lined avenue or prominent walkway flanked by large, ornate stone-built academic or administrative buildings with Gothic Revival or Beaux-Arts architectural elements. The color palette employed in the print suggests a fall or late autumn scene, with trees displaying shades of brown, orange, and muted green in the surrounding lawns and distant foliage. The sky appears somewhat overcast, creating a subdued light. The print is matted with a wide, light-colored, possibly cream or off-white, mat board. There are visible signatures or markings on the bottom right corner of the print, reading 'Richard Remmes Jr.' This suggests either a limited edition print signed by the artist or a print reproduction of their work. The frame is a slender, metallic or painted wood frame with a silver or champagne finish, showing some minor wear consistent with age, particularly on the lower edge. The overall condition of the print within the frame appears good, with no obvious major damage, discoloration, or foxing visible from the provided image. The quality of the reproduction seems high, with good detail in the architectural elements and natural features. The item's estimated age is likely mid-to-late 20th century or early 21st century based on the appearance of the print and framing style. The subject matter suggests it might be a commemorative or historical piece related to a specific university or institution.
