Jim Harrison Print Appraisal

Jim Harrison "The Angel Oak" Framed Print

This item is a professionally framed, landscape-oriented print of 'The Angel Oak' by the renowned South Carolina artist Jim Harrison. The piece depicts the iconic and massive live oak tree, characterized by its sprawling, majestic boughs that touch the ground, rendered in a realistic style with a warm, sun-dappled palette of earthy browns, mossy greens, and soft light. The artwork is housed in a substantial dark wood frame with a visible grain texture, measuring approximately 36 by 24 inches. It features a triple or wide-inset white matting with a dark inner border that provides a sophisticated depth. A significant feature is the gold circular foil seal or medallion located in the lower-left corner of the matting, which typically indicates a limited edition or a special commemorative release from the artist's studio. The artist's signature is visible on the lower right of the print. The condition of the piece is excellent, showing no signs of fading, moisture damage, or foxing on the paper, and the frame remains structurally sound with no notable abrasions. This work represents Harrison's classic Americana and regionalist style, likely dating from the late 20th century to the early 2000s, showcasing high-quality lithographic printing techniques.
