What periods do these paintings come from?

The available works span from the nineteenth century through the Edwardian era and into the mid-twentieth century. Many pieces date from the Victorian period up to the 1960s. This broad timeline encompasses Victorian academic styles, British and French impressionism, and mid-twentieth-century modern approaches.

How do I care for an antique oil painting?

Oil paintings on canvas or wood panel require stable indoor humidity and protection from direct sunlight. Keep them away from heat sources to prevent the paint or wood from cracking. Dust the surface gently with a soft, dry brush and avoid using water or chemical cleaners on the paint layer.

What is the difference between oil and watercolour?

Oil paint uses drying oils to bind pigments, creating thick, textured layers on canvas or board that can be reworked. Watercolours utilise water-soluble binders on paper, producing lighter, translucent effects. Watercolour paintings generally require protective glass frames, whereas oil paintings are typically displayed unglazed.

Are these works signed by the artists?

Many pieces feature artist signatures, monograms, or inscriptions on the front or reverse. Some works remain unsigned or indistinctly signed, often attributed to specific regional schools of painting. Signatures help establish the authorship and date, connecting the piece to known exhibition records or biographies.
