This is a beautifully framed reproduction of a famous artist, Natasha Barnes (from South Africa). There is no glass, yet the framing is quite durable and well done. There is a coating over the print which helps protect it and brush strokes are added to make it appear more authentic. The frame is a deep rich chocolate/black --- almost hard to tell which color so it would go with lots of decor. The print is so similar to how it displayed on my monitor. Golden yellows... deep browns --- then you look again and it seems greenish gold and creamy... the flowers are Graceful as the title implies. Beautiful.
