Lisa Yuskavage Artist's Proof Lithograph Print "Almost Turns"

This item is a framed lithograph print titled "Almost Turns" by artist Lisa Yuskavage, designated as an Artist's Proof. The print depicts an interior scene, likely a bedroom, with two figures. One figure stands prominently on the left, while another is seated or reclining on the right, partially obscured by what appears to be a bed. The imagery is rendered in a monochromatic or muted tonal palette, primarily black and white or sepia, typical of lithographic prints. The composition suggests a psychological or intimate narrative. The print is housed within a dark, possibly black, wooden frame with a clean, flat profile. A wide, white mat board surrounds the print, providing visual separation and protection, and enhancing the perceived size and importance of the artwork. No visible defects such as tears, significant discoloration, or water damage are apparent on the print itself from the provided image. The frame appears to be in good condition with no visible chips or scuffs. The Artist's Proof designation indicates that this is one of a small number of prints pulled for the artist's own use and approval, often before the main edition is printed, and can sometimes be more valuable than numbered editions due to their direct connection to the artist's creative process. The style points to contemporary art, likely from the late 20th or early 21st century, given Lisa Yuskavage's active career.
