Framed Portrait Print of an African Woman

This item is a framed art print featuring a stylized portrait of an African woman. The artwork itself appears to be a print, possibly a lithograph or giclée, rather than an original painting or drawing, evidenced by the consistent coloring and lack of visible brushstrokes or pencil marks. The dominant colors in the artwork are a monochrome green-grey for the figure against a light, faded yellow background. The woman is depicted in profile, looking upwards and to the left, with a serene expression. She wears a white and yellow patterned headscarf, large hoop earrings, and multiple bangles on her left arm. The drapery of her clothing is rendered in a lighter tone, creating visual separation and texture. There is a discernible signature on the bottom right of the print, though it is not clearly legible from the image provided. The print is housed in a simple rectangular frame made of dark brown wood. The frame has a smooth finish and a flat, slightly beveled profile. The artwork is protected by a clear glazing, likely glass or acrylic. The overall condition appears fair; the background color of the print shows signs of age-related yellowing or fading, which is common for prints, possibly indicating sun exposure or the type of paper used. There are no obvious tears, creases, or major damages to the print itself. The frame also appears to be in good condition with no visible cracks or significant chips, though some minor scuffs might be present given its apparent age. The style suggests a mid to late 20th-century aesthetic, possibly aligning with ethnic art trends from the 1970s or 1980s. The craftsmanship of the print points to mass production, while the frame is standard, suggesting a decorative rather than fine art piece.
