Dear Jackie,
Thank you for contacting Mearto with your appraisal inquiry.
The appraised item appears to be by the African-American abstract artist Betty Blayton (1937-2016). “Pathways to sand chambers”, 19 ½ x 13 ½ inches. Signed and dated lower right. This print depicts an abstract composition and has an edition number of 26/35.
This piece is in good condition without any visible damages.
Prints by Betty Blayton don’t come often on the art market and for your information, the estimation highlighted in red has been based on other works by the artist offered and sold at auction in the last five years. The subject work’s size, the medium, the composition, condition (based on photographs and comments provided), as well as the artists’ current auction market were taken into consideration when determining the estimate. In many cases, pricing for similar items available on the primary (retail) market varies and is often higher than secondary (auction) market examples.
Best regards,
Karine
