Framed 1998 'Bells, Bells' Woodcut Holiday Broadsheet by Eva Isaksen
A professionally framed holiday broadsheet featuring a woodblock print and poem titled 'Bells, Bells' by artist Eva Isaksen. The work is printed on high-quality, heavy-weight white paper with a distinct deckled edge, Characteristic of fine art printmaking. The composition includes a black ink woodcut illustration on the left depicting festive bells, leaves, and jars, flanked by a central poem printed in red and black ink. To the right, the original carved woodblock used to create the image is mounted beside the print, showing the inverse relief of the design and highlighting the artisan craftsmanship. The bottom of the sheet bears the text: 'CHRISTMAS TIME AT THE ADAM EAST GALLERY, 1998', along with a handwritten signature and date by the artist in graphite. The assembly is housed within a shadowbox-style frame with a speckled gold-leaf finish and protective glazing. The overall condition appears excellent, with no visible foxing or fading to the paper art, though the woodblock exhibits natural grain textures and ink staining from use. The frame shows minor surface wear consistent with its age and display history.
