Mid-Century Impressionist Harbor Scene Lithograph

This item is an original framed print, likely a lithograph or serigraph, depicting a vibrant harbor scene with various sailing vessels docked against a coastal backdrop. The artwork measures approximately 70x60 cm including the frame. The color palette features a contrast between cool blues and grays in the water and sky against punctuated pops of primary colors on the boats' hulls and masts. The composition utilizes a bird's-eye perspective looking down at the harbor, characterized by expressive, sketchy linework and layered blocks of color typical of Mid-Century Modern graphic art styles. The piece is housed in a traditional gold-tone fluted wooden frame with a wide off-white mat that provides significant negative space around the central image. The frame exhibits minor surface wear and small nicks consistent with age, particularly at the corners and along the outer edges. The matting shows some potential evidence of slight acid-burn or toning near the inner bevel, though the central image remains sharp and the colors appear well-preserved under glass. While a specific signature is not immediately legible in this view, the gestural execution suggests a work from the 1960s or 1970s, intended for a sophisticated domestic or commercial interior. The construction appears sturdy, with the paper substrate showing no signs of significant rippling or water damage.
