Item Description
Childbirth is a miraculous thing, but not always a pleasant one. This framed lithograph by artist Ben Shawn depicts a gritty, realistic view of life's greatest miracle. A woman, shrouded in navy blues and grays, prepares for the birth of her baby. The world is dark around her, but will soon brighten with the presence of her child. Many parents will understand this feeling of waiting for a child to bring light into their lives. This poignant piece will remind its owner of the struggle of hard work, but the beautiful reward that will come after. The lithograph measures 21 inches in width, and 16 inches in height. It's mounted and embossed in a frame measuring to 28 inches wide and 24 inches high.
