Morris J. Shubin AWS NWS Original Watercolor - "Flood Tide" Monterey Bay CA
The watercolor painting itself is in very good condition with vibrant tones and no visible foxing but possible light moisture damage. The original vintage gold-wash wooden frame shows wear, including scuffing, paint loss, and chipped wood specifically along the corners and outer edges as shown in the detail photos. The matting remains structurally sound with slight age-related toning. The artist's signature ("Morris J. Shubin AWS") is clear and prominent in the lower-left corner.
