Framed Watercolor Print of Seashells

This item is a framed piece of wall art featuring a realistic watercolor depiction of a clustered pile of various seashells. The artwork showcases a range of bivalve and univalve shells in natural earthy tones including cream, tan, russet, and deep indigo-purples. The composition is a vertical still life, rendered with attention to texture and light. It is housed in an light-to-medium oak-finish wooden frame with mitered corners. The presentation includes a double matting system: a thin sage-green inner mat bordered by a wide off-white or cream-colored linen-textured outer mat. The overall style is contemporary coastal or nautical décor, likely dating from the late 20th century (circa 1980s-1990s). Regarding condition, the frame appears intact with no major structural damage, though light surface scuffs consistent with age may be present. The matting shows some slight discoloration or yellowing near the edges, which is typical for non-archival materials of this era. There are no visible maker's marks or signatures in the provided image, suggesting it may be a mass-produced commercial print or a lithography rather than an original one-of-a-kind painting. The craftsmanship of the framing is standard commercial quality.
