Dear Pam,
Thank you for contacting Mearto with your appraisal inquiry.
The presented object appears to be an etching on paper with the measurements of 12 X 16 inches. The print depicts three flying Canadian Gooses and is titled "Cloudy Dawn". Under the image, we see the signature of the artist Frank Weston BENSON (1862-1951).
This piece is in good condition and there are no serious damages visible.
An estimation would be between 400 to 800 USD.
This estimation is based on actual recent past recorded auction sales of comparables. Retail "asking prices" can be higher and vary.
With kind regards,
Georg
