Spring Morning Artist Proof by Irene Borg

This item is a limited edition artist proof (AP) lithograph titled 'Spring Morning' by the American artist Irene Borg (estimated late 20th century). The artwork depicts a young blonde girl in a traditional lavender and white eyelet dress with a pink sash, holding a single pink tulip while standing amongst blossoming cherry or apple blossom trees. The style is heavily influenced by American Impressionism, utilizing soft, feathered brushwork and a pastel palette dominated by pinks, purples, and greens. The print is housed in a contemporary gold-toned frame with a large white mat featuring a thin pink inner fillet that complements the tones of the artwork. On the lower margin of the print, the words 'artist proof' are visible on the left, the title 'Spring Morning' is centered, and it is hand-signed by Irene Borg on the right. The condition appears to be excellent with no visible signs of foxing, fading, or moisture damage to the paper. The craftsmanship exhibits a high-quality reproduction of the artist's original impasto textures, maintaining the ethereal, romanticized quality typical of Borg's work which often centers on themes of childhood innocence and floral landscapes.
