Framed Architectural Etching of a Mansard-Roof House
This item is a framed fine art print, appearing to be an etching or lithograph, depicting a stylized three-story house with a mansard roof, flanked by a street lamp and a single rounded tree. The artwork is executed in a whimsical, graphic style with fine line work on aged or off-white paper. It is professionally matted using a multi-layer technique, featuring a wide tan linen-textured mat and a secondary brown inner mat that provides depth to the presentation. The frame is a classic dark wood, possibly mahogany or cherry finish, with a simple molded profile. Visible markings include hand-penciled notations at the bottom of the print, likely indicating an edition number (e.g., '14/50') on the left and a signature and title on the right. The condition appears stable, with no visible foxing, though the paper shows slight yellowing consistent with mid-20th-century origins. The craftsmanship of the framing suggests a decorative but high-quality gallery finish. The subject matter and execution reflect an mid-century European or American aesthetic, likely dating between 1960 and 1980.
