The Wren Building, College of William & Mary Art Print

This item is a historical architectural art print depicting "The Wren Building" at the College of William & Mary. The print is rectangular, rendered in a representational style with a palette dominated by earthy tones, muted greens, grays, and whites, suggesting a watercolor or pastel medium for the original artwork. The central focus is the iconic Wren Building, characterized by its red brick facade, numerous symmetrically placed windows, traditional dormer windows on the roof, and a distinctive cupola topped with a weather vane. A central portico leads to the main entrance. In the foreground, a brick path extends from the viewer towards the building, flanked on either side by manicured grassy areas. A classic white picket fence with open gates frames the path, separating the foreground from the building. Several bare or sparsely leafed deciduous trees, indicative of late winter or early spring, are positioned throughout the composition, providing depth and framing the building. The sky above is overcast, contributing to the print's subdued atmosphere. The print appears to be on standard art paper or cardstock. Its exact dimensions are not discernible from the image, but it appears to be a common print size. The overall condition of the print itself is difficult to ascertain precisely due to it being protected within a clear, somewhat wrinkled plastic sleeve, which is causing glare across its surface. However, no overt damage such as tears, significant creases, or heavy staining is visible through the protective layer. Manufacturing details are clearly visible at the bottom. On the lower left, "The Wren Building, College of William & Mary" is printed, identifying the subject precisely. On the lower right, a signature, likely "Robert Graham '79", indicates the artist and possibly the year of creation or publication of the print. This suggests it is a signed art print, likely produced around 1979, making it a vintage collegiate commemorative piece. The precise rendering of architectural details and the nuanced color work indicate good quality craftsmanship in the reproduction.
