Hello, this item is a set of four framed layered paper relief panels by Greg Copeland, dated 1972 and identified as style number 439. The composition forms a complete circular medallion or sunburst when all four panels are arranged together, executed in precision-cut layered paper to create depth through shadow and repetition of geometric and organic motifs. This type of work reflects the strong interest in optical relief, modular design, and architectural decoration seen in American design of the late 1960s and early 1970s. The pencil signature “Copeland” on each panel, along with the printed mark on the reverse reading “© Greg Copeland Inc. 1972,” confirms authorship and period. The aluminum frames with glass appear original and consistent with mid-century and early 1970s presentation formats.
From a market perspective, Greg Copeland’s relief works occupy a niche within decorative modernism and mid-century wall art, appealing primarily to collectors of vintage interior design rather than fine art buyers. Value depends on completeness, condition, and visual impact, and a full four-panel composition like this is more desirable than single examples. Given the intact set, original frames, and overall good condition with minor wear, the fair market value is in the range of $600 to $1,000 USD.
