Hello,

This item is a delicate watercolor painting of a bamboo plant, complemented by calligraphic inscriptions. The artwork appears to be rendered on rice paper, a medium that speaks to the traditional East Asian artistic approach where simplicity and elegance in form are paramount. The dimensions of the painting itself measure 12" x 12" and it is carefully matted with a 2-inch border of Arctic White 3297 Crescent watercolor board, providing a harmonious background that accentuates the fine details of the bamboo stalks and leaves. The piece is framed in a 16" x 16" bamboo-style frame, adding a naturalistic element to the presentation, with a black barrier paper backing for preservation.

Given the quality, traditional aesthetic, and framing, the market value of this watercolor painting is estimated to be in the range of $200 to $300, with potential variation depending on regional demand for Asian art and the condition of the frame and artwork.
