Guardians Of The Temple Print Appraisal

Guardians of the Temple - Limited Edition Print by Solomon (1994)

This is a framed limited edition art print, likely a lithograph or serigraph, depicting an architectural scene with figures. The artwork features a muted color palette dominated by blues, greens, and browns, with touches of yellow and beige. The composition shows multiple levels, including a prominent large wooden door with visible studs, archways, and staircases. Several figures are visible within the architectural setting; one figure appears to be seated on steps, while others, possibly robed, are standing or walking under arches, some wearing distinctive tall, conical hats. The overall style suggests a historical or fantasy setting, with a somewhat somber or contemplative mood. The print itself has a visible white border or matting, on which handwritten details are present. In the lower left corner, '6/50' is written, indicating it is the 6th print out of a limited edition of 50. In the center, there appears to be a title, 'Guardians of the Temple' (though the last word is slightly obscured, 'Temple' seems plausible). To the right, there is a signature that reads 'Solomon 94', suggesting the artist is Solomon and the print was created in 1994. The print is framed under glass, with a dark, possibly black, matboard surrounding the print, and encased in a wooden frame. The frame has a decorative gold-toned inner edge with an etched or carved pattern, and a darker, possibly distressed, outer edge. Visible condition issues include minor scuffs or wear on the frame, particularly noticeable in the bottom left corner where a light scuff or mark is present on the dark frame. The glass appears clear, and the print itself seems to be in good condition with no immediate visible damage or discoloration.
