Rosina Wachtmeister Appraisal

Rosina Wachtmeister Framed Cat Print

This item is a framed contemporary art print featuring the distinctive feline imagery of Austrian artist Rosina Wachtmeister. The artwork depicts a stylized, geometric cat with a bicolored face (grey and white/gold tones) and vibrant yellow eyes. The feline occupies the central composition, accented by metallic foil elements on the tail and collar/neck area, which is a signature technique of the artist's prints. The background consists of a textured blue wash with a crescent moon and floral motifs in shades of red and pink. The piece is signed 'Rosina Wachtmeister' in the lower right margin in cursive script. Physically, the print is professionally mounted within a double mat board featuring a salmon-colored inner border and an off-white outer border. It is housed behind glass in a sleek, silver-toned metallic frame. The overall condition appears excellent with no visible fading, moisture damage, or foxing on the paper. The frame shows minimal wear, likely dating from the late 20th to early 21st century. The craftsmanship reflects high-quality commercial reproduction common for Wachtmeister's widely celebrated decorative works.
