Found this other day at the thrift store. Not sure if its a large coaster or just a picture. There is no way to hang it. It is under glass. Has a metal ring frame around it. I looked all over net and didn't find any similar to it. Backing is thick pressed cardboard. There are no markings or dates or signatures.
 
Tried for many hours with photobucket and couldn't get it to work. I'm on an android phone and have read many tutorials and can't figure out image code change that is needed. Please help.

The style of your print looks to be 'pastoral.' Judging by the frame, print style, and cardboard backing, I would guesstimate it to be circa 1940s-50s. It could be a print of a famous pastoral painting similar to these: https://www.google.com/search?q=pas...&sa=X&ei=oGgbVaCxM8umNo22gMAB&ved=0CAYQ_AUoAQ

Use a magnifying glass to see if it is made up of small dots in a distinct pattern or is it random dots, dashes, and other marks. If it is a distinct pattern of dots, it's a reproduction print.

Neat find :)
