Waiting For The Wind Print Appraisal

Limited Edition Watercolor Print 'Waiting for the Wind' by Mary Anderson

This is a framed limited edition watercolor print, likely a giclée or lithograph, by artist Mary Anderson, titled "Waiting for the Wind". The print is housed in a contemporary light natural wood frame, a simple profile and a clean, minimalist aesthetic. It features a blue and white matting, although only the white matting is clearly visible around the image. The print depicts a vibrant coastal scene with a sweeping panoramic view of a body of water, possibly a bay or harbor, with a lively waterfront. In the foreground, a prominent blue, multi-story building with a dark blue roof and white trim is visible on the left. A long, blue curved pier or boardwalk with railings extends into the water on the right, populated by figures and what appears to be a black dog. The landscape includes lush green grassy areas, sandy beaches, and several boats and sailboats in the water, some with colorful striped sails in red, white, and blue, and yellow and red. The sky is a blend of blue and soft pinkish-orange clouds, suggesting either sunrise or sunset. Several seabirds, including gulls, are depicted flying in the sky and near the water. The artist's signature, "Mary Anderson", is visible in the lower right corner, along with what appears to be a numerical indication of a limited edition print, possibly "1/50", though only the "/50" is perfectly legible. The overall condition appears to be excellent, with no visible damage, fading, or moisture issues to the print itself or the frame. The colors are bright and well-preserved, indicating good quality printing and framing materials or proper care. The style is characteristic of contemporary watercolor landscapes, with a focus on vibrant colors and dynamic compositions.
