James Tytler Artwork Appraisal

Take my hand by James Tytler

This is a framed print titled 'Take my hand' by James Tytler. The print depicts a beach scene with three figures: an adult female in a yellow dress and red hat, a child in a red outfit, and another adult figure, possibly female, in a beige outfit and red hat. The figures are standing in shallow water on a sandy beach with the sea and distant shoreline visible in the background under a hazy sky. The overall color palette is soft and muted, with dominant tones of beige, yellow, red, and cool blues and grays in the sky and water. The print is presented in a simple wooden frame with a reddish-brown finish. The frame features a slight bevel on the inner edge. The artwork is set behind a wide, off-white matboard. There appear to be no significant condition issues visible in the image; the print seems to be free of creases, tears, or discoloration, and the frame and matboard appear clean and intact. The style is contemporary, and the subject matter suggests a tender, familial moment at the beach. The quality of the print reproduction appears good, with decent color saturation and detail for a print of this size.
