A perfect piece to add to your Halloween, or Autumn, vignettes. This beautifully rendered image of a barn owl is a combination of paper art on the wings and oil painting for the finish. This is a very realistic up-close presentation of a mighty owl, and just a bit haunting, with the yellow piercing eye and prominent beak. The colors used for the body and wings are such wonderful shades of browns and tans, as in nature.

Adding to the drama of the presentation is the antique frame which houses the piece. Beveled medium stained oak for the outside of the frame and and inner decorative plaster edge that has been painted shades of silver. Just stunning!

The pieces are both in really nice condition. The paper art/painting has a double neutral mat. No signature or dating is noted. The frame shows some of it's age with scuffs and nicks in the wood and the original nails are still visible in the still tight corners. I think the paint that was applied to the inner plaster edge was not cleaned off the wood frame as well as could be. This could be remedied by removing the painting and applying paint remover and wood finish, if desired. There is no glass over the piece.
