Lot 237: A Pair of British School Landscape Watercolours with Gouache, Late 19th or Early 20th Century
A pair of landscape paintings executed in watercolour with gouache highlights on paper. These British school works depict moorland scenes, likely of the Scottish Highlands, featuring rocky streams in the foreground bordered by blooming purple heather. The compositions lead to soft, atmospheric mountain ranges in the background under overcast skies. Both paintings are housed in matching decorative ornate gilt frames with beaded and gadrooned borders. Dark markings are present in the lower-right corners of each work, but they are not clearly legible as signatures.
Condition report:
Generally good condition. The paper shows light overall toning consistent with age. There is no significant evidence of foxing, water damage, or major fading visible under the glass. The gilt frames exhibit minor surface wear, including small scuffs and minor losses to the gilding consistent with age and handling.
