Pareglio & Ayres Antiques Interiors has dated these Edwardian Marine Oil Paintings to the 1910s.
On canvas, English School, each signed and dated "B. Nash, 1904" to the lower corner.
The pair functions as a thematic diptych representing two contrasting times of day over a coastal harbor or estuary: one depicts sunrise, the other sunset, both showing sailing boats at anchor on open water beneath a coloured sky.

The paintings remain on their original stretchers with original tacking. Both show fine craquelure consistent with age, and a few small areas of surface wear. Reflecting their genuine 1904 age, one canvas shows two tiny, historic pin-size holes, which are entirely stable and do not detract from the overall image.

The frames are the original mahogany-finish mouldings with cosmetic wear. Although antique and original, they add a surprisingly contemporary look to this appealing, narrow rectangular pair of landscapes.
