Viktor Shvaiko Le Salon De Limoges Limited Edition Print Appraisal

Viktor Shvaiko "Le Salon de Limoges" Limited Edition Print

This item is a framed limited edition print titled "Le Salon de Limoges" by the artist Viktor Shvaiko, measuring approximately 24 x 36 inches according to the provided context. The print depicts a European street scene, likely French, rendered primarily in monochromatic tones of grey, white, and black for the architecture and cobblestone streets, with striking contrasts of warm, glowing yellow and orange emanating from the windows and interior lights of the buildings. The perspective suggests a view from a narrow street or canal, with buildings rising on either side. A prominent feature is a building on the right with a sign that appears to read "LE SALON DE L...". The water in the foreground, presumably a canal, reflects some of the building lights. The brushstrokes are visible, suggesting a textured, perhaps impasto, style in the original artwork, which is well-captured in this print. The print is housed within a dark reddish-brown wooden frame with a subtle, possibly carved or molded, decorative edge. The frame appears to be in good condition, complementing the artwork without overwhelming it. The overall condition of the print is described as 'great condition,' with no obvious signs of wear, fading, or damage visible in the provided images. The contrast between the cool greys and warm lights creates a dramatic and inviting atmosphere, characteristic of Shvaiko's romanticized cityscapes. The presence of a limited edition mark indicates a certain level of exclusivity and collectibility, usually accompanied by an edition number and artist's signature (though not explicitly visible in these images). The framing appears professional, enhancing the presentation of the artwork.
