Are these artworks in their original frames?

Many pieces retain period surrounds such as burr maple, oak, or giltwood mouldings dating from the nineteenth century. Some works have been reframed over time to ensure structural stability and match contemporary conservation standards.

How should I hang watercolour paintings safely?

Position works away from direct sunlight and damp environments to prevent paper discolouration and foxing. Ensure that hanging wires and wall fixings are rated to support the combined weight of the frame and glass.

Can I identify the artist from a signature?

Signatures, monograms, or dates inscribed onto the canvas or paper often point to recorded nineteenth-century painters. Examine exhibition labels or handwritten inscriptions on the reverse of the stretcher bars for additional provenance clues.
