What does this mean?

Dear Rebecca,

Thank you for your request. The apprised object is a print after painting with the measurements of 33 1/4 by 22 1/2 inches. It is probably a carbon print and depicts an allegory of the law which is the title. It was printed by A W Elson & Co who were located in Boston.
Edwin Howland Blashfield (December 5, 1848 – October 12, 1936) was an American painter and is known especially for his large-sized murals. Also, this print is after a mural by Edwin Blashfield and hangs in the East Courtroom of the historic United States District Courthouse, Customs House and Post Office at Cleveland, Ohio.
This piece is in medium condition and the paper is browned regarding light damage.
An estimation would be between 50 to 100 USD.
This estimation is based on actual recent past recorded auction sales of comparables. Retail "asking prices" can be higher and vary.

With best regards,
Georg
