Framed Still Life Print 'Serene Setting'

This item is a framed print, likely a giclée or offset lithograph, depicting a still life composition titled, according to the provided context, 'Serene Setting'. The print itself is a horizontally oriented image featuring a collection of decorative objects. On the left, there's a dark, almost black, gourd-shaped vase holding a single, slender, light-colored flower or botanical stalk. Beside it, a large, light-colored, spherical vase is prominently displayed, adorned with a dynamic scene of a figure on horseback, possibly a warrior or hunter, amidst a dark, swirling cloud-like motif at its top. To its right, a smaller, white vase features a distinct green palm tree design. Further right, a small cup or vessel exhibits a dark, abstract, possibly animal or symbolic, design. The right side of the composition is dominated by a woven basket overflowing with a vibrant assortment of flowers in shades of purple, pink, white, and green foliage. The background of the print is a uniform light cream or beige color. The artwork is framed within a broad, dark brown wooden frame, which shows visible signs of wear and minor damage, particularly in the lower left corner where the wood appears chipped. The frame has a slightly distressed or possibly marbled finish. Inside the main frame, there's a multi-layered matting; a wider dark green outer mat is followed by a thinner, light brown inner mat, which directly borders the print. The print appears to be under glass or acrylic, which reflects light in the upper left and lower right areas, suggesting a glossy surface. The visible damage to the frame suggests a functional rather than decorative value for the frame itself, though it provides protection for the print. The style appears to be a blend of traditional oriental artistry, particularly in the ceramic designs, combined with a more conventional Western still life arrangement for the floral basket. The print is numbered '100' and signed 'DeShong', implying it is part of a limited edition, although the specific edition size (e.g., /100) is not fully visible. The condition of the print within the frame appears good, with no obvious discoloration or damage to the image itself. The item likely dates from the late 20th century or early 21st century given its reproductive nature and framing style.
