Robert Bateman 'Family Portrait - Canada Geese' Limited Edition Print

This is a professionally framed, limited edition offset lithograph print titled 'Family Portrait - Canada Geese' by the world-renowned wildlife artist Robert Bateman. The artwork depicts two adult Canada geese swimming on a calm water surface accompanied by five yellow goslings. The piece showcases Bateman's signature hyper-realistic style, with meticulous attention to the texture of the feathers and the reflective ripples of the water. This specific piece is a rare early edition, numbered 20 out of a limited run of 950, as indicated by the pencil notation in the lower-left margin. A hand-signed pencil signature by the artist is visible in the lower-right margin, confirming its authenticity within the edition series. The print is housed in a high-quality, professional frame valued at approximately $520, featuring a wide, textured dark charcoal or black-finish wood moulding. It is double-matted with a neutral, earth-toned fabric-textured primary mat and a thin white inner accent mat that provides depth and a crisp border to the image. Based on the artist's prolific period for this subject matter, the print likely dates from the late 20th century. The condition appears excellent with no visible foxing, fading, or mechanical damage to the paper or frame, preserved behind what appears to be museum-grade or non-reflective glazing. The craftsmanship of the framing complements the serene nature of the wildlife scene, making it a significant collector's item in the field of contemporary wildlife art.
