Well Stocked Cellar 'Silver Oak Cellars' Artist Proof Print

This item is a framed artist proof print titled 'Well Stocked Cellar', depicting a still life composition featuring elements related to wine. The print showcases two wine glasses, one partially filled with red wine, prominently displaying the 'Silver Oak Cellars' logo and name. The background includes a wooden wine crate, also branded 'SILVER OAK', and several wine bottles, one of which has a label visible that reads 'SILVER OAK 1997 ALEXANDER Cabernet Sauv'. The image is characterized by realistic detail and rich, deep colors, particularly the reds of the wine and the wood tones of the crate. The print itself is housed within a multi-layered frame. The outermost frame is a dark, possibly mahogany or walnut-stained wood, featuring a smooth, rounded profile. Immediately inside this is a lighter, possibly off-white or cream-colored mat or inner frame element, which creates a visual separation and highlights the artwork. There are no visible signs of damage, wear, or significant defects on either the print or the frame, suggesting it is in very good to excellent condition. The 'Artist Proof 34 of 40' indicates a limited edition print, specifically one of a small run of proofs pulled for the artist's approval before the main edition, making it a desirable collectible for art and wine enthusiasts. The craftsmanship of the print suggests a high-quality reproduction, likely an Giclée or lithograph, selected for its vibrant color rendition and detail. The overall style is contemporary realism, capturing a luxurious and inviting scene typically associated with fine wine culture. The age is estimated to be no older than 1997, given the vintage visible on one of the bottles.
