Limited Edition Wildlife Art Print, 'Challenge' by Patrick Sawyran (1986)

This item is a limited edition wildlife art print, depicting a dramatic standoff between a pack of wolves and a bull moose in a snow-covered landscape. The scene is rendered with intricate detail, showcasing the textures of the animals' fur and the icy snow. The color palette primarily consists of blues, grays, browns, and whites, accurately representing a wintry environment. The print exhibits fine craftsmanship in its reproduction accuracy and color fidelity. Visible characteristics include several gray wolves, some appearing to be barking or lunging, confronting a large moose with impressive antlers. The setting suggests a cold, mountainous region with pine trees and a distant Ridgeline. The overall condition appears good with no obvious signs of significant damage like tears, creases, or major discoloration, but the precise surface is difficult to assess through the image. There might be some minor handling wear given its apparent age, but this is not clearly visible. The print is signed by the artist, 'Patrick Sawyran', indicating it is a piece from this particular artist. The signature '© Patrick Sawyran 1986' is also clearly visible, establishing the print's creation date as 1986. This date places the print squarely within the late 20th-century art period. The phrase 'Limited edition' is noted which implies it is part of a numbered series, enhancing its collectibility. It appears to be an offset lithograph print due to the precise and clean lines, typical for mass-produced fine art reproductions of this era. The borders are plain white, suggesting it is unmounted or unframed at the time of the photograph. The quality of the reproduction seems high, with good color saturation and sharpness, indicative of a professional printing process. No visible foxing or significant fading is apparent.
