The artwork has been expertly and lovingly framed for optimal viewing and presentation. A certificate of authenticity and additional info about the location are included.

Environmental Responsibility: I prioritize environmentally responsible artmaking practices, ensuring the optimization of materials and minimal waste during the creation of this piece.
