Framed John Mellencamp Limited Edition Print

This is a matted and framed art print by the musician and visual artist John Mellencamp. The artwork depicts a stylized portrait of a woman with blonde, curly hair wearing a blue headband and a blue garment, smoking a cigarette. The style is expressionistic, utilizing a muted palette of pale pinks, blues, and grays. A signature and date of '1988' are visible in the upper right-hand corner of the artwork itself, while a clear graphite signature is written in the lower margin, indicating this is a limited edition or signed lithographic print. The piece is housed in a professional metal frame with a double-matting arrangement: an outer dark gray mat and an inner thin blue accent mat. The glass shows significant reflection, suggesting it may not be museum-grade non-reflective glass. Mellencamp's art is known for its raw, figurative style influenced by German Expressionism. The condition of the paper appears good with no obvious foxing or water damage, though the frame exhibits minor perimeter scuffing. The composition includes a ghostly, secondary figure in the background, adding a narrative depth characteristic of his late 1980s work.
