What periods do these artworks cover?

The pieces span from the 17th century through the Georgian, Victorian, Regency and Edwardian eras up to the early 20th century. Represented origins include British, Bavarian and Japanese workshops across various centuries.

How were these paintings and prints framed?

Many works are housed in solid wood frames, some enhanced with giltwood or gold leaf. Frames often reflect the period of the artwork, ranging from simple timber surrounds to elaborate carved mouldings.

What subjects appear most frequently?

Portraiture dominates the selection, showing noblewomen, medical doctors, children and historical figures. Landscapes, genre scenes of daily life, and still life compositions of fruit and flowers also feature. Japanese woodblock prints introduce scenes distinct from European oil paintings.

How do I care for period artwork?

Keep paintings and prints away from direct sunlight and extreme fluctuations in temperature or humidity. Avoid using chemical cleaners on canvases, wood panels or gilded frames. Dust gently with a soft, dry brush when necessary, leaving conservation work to professionals.
