Arabian Gulf Dhows by Lenore DePree, Limited Edition Print 29/100

This item is a framed, limited edition black and white print titled 'ARABIAN GULF DHOWS' by the artist Lenore DePree, dated 1981. The artwork depicts two traditional Arabian dhows moored at a dock, rendered with detailed cross-hatching and fine-line ink or graphite techniques. The composition features a foreground dock, the central vessels with intricate rigging, and faint reflections on the water's surface. Notable markings located along the bottom edge include the title on the left, the edition number '29/100' in the center, and the signature 'LENORE DEPREE '81' on the right, all handwritten. The print is housed in a simple, contemporary black wooden or composite frame with a neutral-toned mat board. The visible condition of the print appears good, though there is slight evidence of age-related toning/yellowing to the paper and a small dark speck near the bottom right margin. The artist, known for her documentation of Middle Eastern culture, particularly in the United Arab Emirates and Saudi Arabia during the late 20th century, has captured high levels of craft details in the boat construction. This piece represents a collectable example of expatriate art from the 1980s Gulf region.
