Vintage Framed Lithograph of The Good Shepherd

This item is a mid-20th-century religious lithograph print depicting Jesus Christ as 'The Good Shepherd'. The composition features Jesus in a red robe and white tunic, holding a lamb and a shepherd's crook, surrounded by a flock of sheep under a fruit-bearing tree. The print displays a soft, diffused lighting style representative of mid-century mass-produced devotional art. It is housed in a rectangular wooden frame with a metallic gold-toned or 'champagne' finish and a stepped profile. The frame shows minor surface abrasions and some light wood grain visible through the finish, suggesting it is a standard commercial frame from approximately the 1940s to 1960s. The artwork is protected by glass, which shows significant reflections in the current view. While no specific maker's mark is visible on the front, this imagery is stylistically consistent with the works of Warner Sallman or similar commercial religious artists of the era. The color palette is dominated by earthy tones, warm reds, and muted greens. Condition appears fair to good, with some potential fading from light exposure and slight corner wear on the frame. The overall construction reflects a mid-tier quality level designed for home or church decorative use.
