What periods do these paintings date from?

The listings span the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, with a strong representation of Victorian and Edwardian works. Dates range from the early nineteenth century through to the mid-twentieth century.

How should paper paintings be framed?

Works on paper require framing behind glass with acid-free mounts to protect the surface from moisture and atmospheric dust. Direct contact between the paint surface and the glass should be avoided.

What is the difference between watercolour and gouache?

Watercolour is translucent, allowing the underlying white paper to shine through the washes of pigment. Gouache includes an opaque white additive that creates a solid, matte finish without transparency.

Are these works signed by the artists?

Many examples bear artist signatures, monograms, or studio inscriptions written directly onto the paper support. Some historical works remain unsigned or are attributed based on style and provenance.
