Contemporary Blue Abstract Serigraph by Anne Youkeles

This item is a large-format square artwork, likely a serigraph or limited edition lithograph, featuring a monochromatic blue-green palette. The piece is characterized by a subtle, geometric gradient effect that creates a three-dimensional illusion of depth, common in the Op Art or Minimalist styles of the 1970s and 80s. The artwork is housed in a professional light gray or silver-toned frame with a corresponding wide mat board that highlights the print's white border. In the upper right corner of the white margin, a faint signature and possibly a title or edition number are visible, typical of the artist Anne Youkeles. The condition appears fair to good; there are noticeable reflections on the glazing suggesting no anti-reflective coating. The frame displays some minor scuffing on the left edge, and there is a potential slight discoloration or foxing starting in the white margin margins, which is common for paper works of this age. The craftsmanship is high, utilizing precise screen-printing techniques to achieve the smooth tonal transitions. Based on the style and framing, this piece likely dates to between 1975 and 1985.
