"Grandma's Birthday" Framed Art Print by E.J.S. MFG.

This item is a vintage framed lithographic print titled "Grandma's Birthday," depicting a sentimental Victorian or Edwardian indoor scene. The image features an elderly woman seated in an armchair while a young girl enters through a doorway carrying a bouquet of flowers. The print employs a soft, muted color palette dominated by sepia, cream, and neutralized earth tones, designed to evoke a sense of nostalgia. The artwork is housed in a substantial wood frame with a metallic gold-toned gilt finish, featuring a tiered profile with beaded interior detailing. A notable feature is the attached metal title plaque at the bottom center of the frame, which is engraved with the script text "Grandma's Birthday." Based on the metadata provided (E.J.S MFG. N. Y.), the piece was produced by the E.J.S. Manufacturing Company of New York, a firm known for mid-20th-century decorative wall art and mass-produced framed prints (circa 1940s-1960s). The condition shows moderate age-related wear, including minor scuffing on the frame's finish, particularly along the bottom edge, and a visible patina on the metal plaque. The print surface appears stable but may have slight fading or yellowing consistent with age. The craftsmanship is typical of commercial decorative arts of the mid-century era, intended for home decor rather than fine art gallery display.
