What does this mean?

Hello Bryon,

Thank you for your appraisal inquiry with Mearto. I apologize for the delay in your appraisal and thank you for your patience. The item presented appears to be a reproduction print after the 1875 oil painting titled "The Spirit of '76" by American artist Archibald McNeal Willard (1836 - 1918). The original oil is held in the collection of Abbot Hall in Marblehead, Massachusetts. The print appears to be signed in plate and inscribed "Willard Ryder Connolly(sp) John J. Thomas" to the lower left.

There appears to be some concerning condition details, such as water damage, foxing, creases and tears that may effect the value. The estimate provided is based on recent auction estimates and results of this work and other comparable reproduction prints after works by Willard, depending on dimensions. The estimate is contingent on a full condition report. Please note asking or dealer prices may vary. Thank you and please take care.
