Hi Debi, A lot of times the value of a art piece
is in the framework. I don't know if what you have is an original or
a print. In 2010 a color print of “Songs of Love” was valued at
$150, replacement value was $250. It was in excellent condition with
the original frame. Please see below:

Yours does show some damage, probably
caused by the matting that was used around the painting. To preserve
a painting you need to use what is called “Museum Mount”. The mat
doesn't have the acid in it that eats into the art.
Here is one like yours not framed,
selling for $8. It looks like it has more damage than the one in your
picture.

Hope this helps,
