Christian Riese Lassen 'A New Beginning' Framed Print

This item is a large-format, professionally framed fine art print by the renowned marine artist Christian Riese Lassen, likely titled 'A New Beginning'. The artwork depicts a hyper-realistic, romanticized nocturnal seascape featuring a radiant full moon reflecting off breaking ocean waves. The palette is dominated by deep blues, indigos, and teals, contrasted with the glowing orange-yellow of the moon and a red-roofed coastal building. Distinctive elements include a lighthouse, palm trees, a sailing ship on the horizon, and a star-speckled sky. The print appears to be a limited edition or high-quality lithograph, indicated by a gold signature in the lower-left corner alongside a secondary handwritten signature. The framing is elaborate, consisting of a heavy, high-gloss black lacquered frame with a blue textured inner fillet. It is matted with a tiered dark border and protected by glass. A small brass identification plaque is centered on the bottom of the inner frame. The overall construction suggests a late 20th to early 21st-century production (circa 1990s-2000s), consistent with Lassen's peak popularity. The condition appears excellent with no visible fading, foxing, or damage to the frame, though high reflectivity in the glass indicates a standard rather than museum-grade anti-reflective coating.
