This limited edition color print, an offset lithograph, is by the artist Charles E. Murphy. The artwork depicts a male and female pair of pheasants in a winter setting, characterized by dormant grasses and bare branches against a neutral background. The piece is hand-numbered 97/400 in pencil in the lower-left corner. In the lower-right corner, the artist’s name is printed as CHARLES E. MURPHY, which is overlaid with a hand-signed signature in pencil reading Charles E. Murphy. The print is professionally presented in a wooden frame with a neutral, fabric-textured mat. The reverse is finished with a paper dust cover and is equipped with a wire for hanging.
Condition report:
The print appears to be in good condition, showing no visible signs of foxing, toning, or fading. The mat and glass are well-preserved. The wooden frame exhibits minor nicks and light scuffing consistent with age and handling. The paper backing on the reverse shows some light wrinkling and minor tears at the corners.
