Capture the quiet, rustic charm of the Nordic countryside with this exceptional vintage 1988 framed porcelain art plaque by the highly acclaimed late Norwegian wildlife artist Jan Petter Bratsberg (1948–2026). This specific piece is a highly collectible Limited Edition, individually hand-numbered as 778 of only 1000 pieces produced worldwide, making it a wonderful find for collectors of Scandinavian wildlife art.
The artwork is beautifully printed directly onto a solid porcelain plaque. It depicts a majestic roe deer buck standing gracefully in a forest clearing next to a traditional wooden fence. The porcelain base provides a subtle, luminous depth that enhances the crisp black ink detailing against the soft, icy-blue backdrop. It comes housed in its original late-1980s gold-finished wooden frame, with the printed signature and date "-88" visible directly on the piece.
The reverse side features its original backing board from "Håndverkatelier Dub" in Skien, Norway. It retains a fascinating educational text in Norwegian detailing the biology and regional history of the animal, alongside logos for local outdoor and conservationist groups. The text notes that profits from this exact ceramic art series went directly towards financing outdoor hiking trails and activities for disabled individuals in Telemark—adding a wonderful philanthropic and historical provenance to this beautiful piece.
