How should I hang watercolour portraits?

Keep these works out of direct sunlight to prevent the watercolour pigments from fading on the paper. Display them on interior walls where humidity and temperature remain stable. Ensure the glass is secure and the original wood or gilded frame properly supports the backing board without putting pressure on the paper.

What periods do these paintings represent?

The selection spans the Georgian, Regency, and Victorian eras, extending into the early and mid-20th century. Dates range from the early nineteenth century through to the 1940s. Stylistic shifts reflect these changing eras, moving from formal academic portraiture and naive art to mid-century realism and British twentieth-century movements.

What is the difference between watercolour and gouache?

Watercolour employs translucent washes that rely on the white or cream paper ground for luminosity. Artists use it to create soft transitions in skin tones and clothing. Gouache adds body and opacity through added white filler, allowing the artist to paint sharp highlights and solid blocks of colour over the watercolour base.
