Category: Art Print
Description

Appraisal Report
This appears to be a print signed by J.W. Neville, an artist known for painting waterfowl. The embossed name "NEUVIL" and the waterfowl embossment strongly suggest this is a print. The text on the print indicates it is a Canvasback Decoy from the Potomac River around 1900. The value of art prints varies greatly depending on the artist's reputation, the edition size, the condition, and demand. While I can identify the artist's style and the subject matter, it's difficult to determine the specific value without knowing the edition information (if it's a limited edition) and the overall condition of the print and frame. Comparable prints by artists of similar renown might range from a few hundred to a few thousand dollars, but this is a broad estimate.
