Print Of Daffodils Appraisal

Framed Botanical Print of Daffodils in a Planter

This item is a framed botanical print featuring a cluster of daffodils. The print depicts approximately a dozen daffodil blossoms in various stages of opening, rendered in soft peach, cream, and pale yellow hues, suggesting varieties like 'Salome' or 'Pink Charm'. The flowers are presented with prominent, long, slender green leaves, typical of Narcissus plants. They are housed in a rectangular, white decorative planter with a blue, somewhat stylized floral or scroll motif centered on its visible side. The background of the print is a light, subtly textured off-white or cream color, possibly simulating parchment or a delicate wallpaper. The print itself appears to be a reproduction, likely a giclée print or lithograph, rather than an original artwork, given the uniformity and likely mass-produced nature of such botanical themes. The print is matted with a wide, light yellow or cream-colored mat board, approximately 3-4 inches in width, creating a visual buffer between the artwork and the frame. A thin, dark inner border, possibly dark green or black, frames the print itself, providing definition. The entire piece is enclosed in a robust, ornate golden wooden frame. The frame features a classic profile with a slightly raised outer edge and a textured, possibly gessoed and gilded, surface that mimics carved wood. The gold finish has a slightly aged or antiqued appearance, with some areas showing a darker patina or subtle wear, particularly visible along the top edge. The print is protected by a sheet of glass or acrylic, which reflects light from the surroundings, indicating it is likely a glass cover. The overall condition appears good, with no obvious signs of significant damage to the print or major chips/scratches on the frame visible in the given image. The style is traditional and decorative, suitable for a classic or country-style interior, likely dating from the late 20th to early 21st century.
