Framed Currier & Ives Reproduction Print - 'Maple Sugaring'
This item is a small-scale, landscape-oriented reproduction of the famous Currier & Ives lithograph titled 'Maple Sugaring.' The print is vertically oriented within its presentation and depicts a classic 19th-century American winter scene featuring a sugar shack, boiling cauldrons, and figures engaged in the production of maple syrup. The color palette consists of muted greens, browns, and whites consistent with traditional lithographic styles. The print is set within a black mat featuring two decorative gold-foil pin-stripes that frame the central image. The entire piece is housed in a substantial, multi-tiered natural wood frame, likely stained oak or walnut, showing a prominent grain pattern. The frame features a deep bevel or cove profile leading toward the glass. Based on the framing style and the quality of the print reproduction, this likely dates to the mid-to-late 20th century. The condition appears to be good with some light dust under the glass and minor surface abrasions on the lower-left edge of the wooden frame. The paper shows slight yellowing, which may be intentional to mimic an aged antique aesthetic. This is a common decorative Americana piece reflecting folk art traditions.
