What does this mean?

These are vintage 20th century prints that were sold through magazine advertising as decorative wall art pieces in a series of 4 entitled Oriental Studies. The framed prints are photo images of original paintings from China that were painted on thin shaved cork. Without an image of the accompanying paperwork, it would seem unlikely for these work to be by American Audubon style artist, Michael James Riddet (b. 1947). The estimate is for one framed print measuring 33" x 23.5" and is based on actual recent past recorded auction sales of comparables. Retail 'asking prices' can be higher and vary.
