Dear Jessica,
Thank you for contacting Mearto with your appraisal inquiry. My sincere apologies for the delay with the appraisal.
The presented object appears to be a print on paper with 41 x 32
inches measurements. This print was made after the famous painting by Jean Honoré Fragonard
with the title "Young Girl Reading", c. 1769 (https://www.nga.gov/collection/art-object-page.46303.html). This print was made in the 20th century.
Comparable objects were recently offered and sold on the international auction market.
This piece is in bad condition and there is light damage and color loss visible in the images provided.
A fair market estimation would be between 0 to 20 USD.
This estimate is based on actual recent past recorded auction sales of comparable items. Retail "asking prices" can be higher and may vary.
With kind regards,
George
