Janet Davis Original Etching
This is an original fine art etching by contemporary printmaker Janet Davis. The artwork features an abstract, ethereal composition dominated by a large concentric circular motif, accented with smaller, dark floral or seed-pod-like elements. The color palette is subtle, utilizing soft washes of pale sage green, muted earthy yellows, and warm pinkish-brown tones, typical of a multi-plate or hand-colored intaglio process. The sight size of the print is approximately 9.5” x 7”, while the framed dimensions are 14” x 11”. Technically, the piece shows a clear and well-defined plate mark, indicating the exert of pressure from the printing press. Below the image, the artist has included pencil notations: an edition number (appearing to be a low-number limited edition, '1/100' or similar), a descriptive title in the center, and the artist's signature 'Janet Davis' on the lower right. The paper is a high-quality cream-toned heavy-weight rag paper. The framing consists of a slim bronze-toned metallic frame and a light blue-grey textured mat. The condition appears excellent with no visible foxing, water damage, or significant fading in the pigments. The print displays traditional craftsmanship associated with late 20th-century printmaking, focusing on texture and gestural abstraction. The piece is well-preserved under glass, though the matting style suggests a 1980s to early 1990s aesthetic.
