"Original hand colored limited edition drypoint etching on paper," per a certificate mounted on the verso of the frame. The image by artist William Papas is also signed and numbered on the front. Papas was a political cartoonist and caricaturist, book author and illustrator, and watercolorist. In the 1960s and 1970s he worked for The Guardian, The Sunday Times, and Punch. This particular image is done in a caricature-like style, and depicts two male coal miners wearing red helmets, standing in front of a mining structure and vehicle. The image dates from 1987. Several notes on the verso dated 2020-2022 refer to the print's sale and framing.
