What subjects appear in Victorian wildlife art?

These works feature a diverse range of fauna, including large predators such as lions, leopards and bears, alongside British game birds, ducks and red squirrels. Artists also placed these animals within detailed natural habitats, spanning Devon moorlands, jungle trees and quiet country landscapes.

How do I care for antique watercolours and prints?

Works on paper, including watercolours and etchings on vellum, require protection from direct sunlight to prevent fading of the pigments and discolouration of the paper support. Displaying them away from excessive humidity ensures the paper and framing materials remain stable over time.

What is the difference between an etching and an oil painting?

An etching is a printed multiple created by scratching a design into a metal plate, whereas an oil painting is a unique, hand-painted work on canvas or panel. Etchings often showcase fine line work and tonal shading, while oil paintings offer rich textures and vibrant colour layering.

Are these works signed by the artists?

Many pieces feature artist signatures, estate stamps or annotations, particularly within the selection of signed proof etchings and listed fine art paintings. Unsigned pieces also appear, often attributed through stylistic comparison to period movements like British naturalism or folk art.
