All Items : Fine Art : Paintings : Watercolor : Pre 1900 item #1256407 (stock #02449)
A beautifully painted pair of framed watercolour photo renderings c1880-1900. They consist of a young man and woman in mid-Victorian dress; each image is done on Victorian photographic print paper and they measure 6-3/4" x 4-3/4". It was common to overpaint old and fading photographs, however these are of such fine quality and detail that they were most likely done from a mirrored projection, another common method of photographic rendering (we can't find any photographic detail under the painting with visual magnification). Each has the legend J. POWELL PHOTO on the image (even the J Powell is over-painted). The frames are an attractive matched pair of gilt painted wood, but are fairly recent in manufacture - the pictures were framed and matted less than 20 years ago. The couple is quite handsome, and they can be your new instant ancestors.... This pair of watercolour portraits is in very good original condition with no losses, damage or repairs other than a faint water stain and a couple of fox marks on the lady and some spots of missing colour on the gentleman (possibly from removal from some old glass to which the photo/picture had adhered). Each has been recently reframed and matted, and the spots on the man could be restored. All items are thoroughly and conservatively graded and all condition issues are noted; all items are vintage or antique and may have slight signs of gentle use. Expedited tracked and insured parcel shipping to the U.S. starts at $27 (other spots may vary, air is higher). Items paid with a credit card will be shipped to confirmed addresses only.

All Items : Fine Art : Prints : Photographs : Pre 1920 item #1180459 (stock #02232)
A Wallace Nutting Nursing the Fire pencil signed photo. This unframed hand coloured and signed photograph print is by Wallace Nutting who was famous for his tinted photos, and those in our listings (four in total) are all sought after interior scenes. This 9-5/8" X 7-5/8" photo is mounted on a signed 10-1/2" X 7-3/4" mat and it is titled "Nursing the Fire", and it is copyrighted 1912. This photo retains its bright colours and it is in mostly excellent condition with no tears, scrapes, fading, bends, losses, damage or repairs other than some light spotting on the photo, either moisture or foxing. The signature and title is in pencil rather than in pen, which is more common on early Nuttings, and far rarer than the pen signatures. All of the Nuttings listed have the light coloured reverse copyright mark and date in the image, also something usually seen on the earlier Nuttings. The mats are a yellowed tone as may usually be seen with matting of this age. We don't ordinarily see unframed Wallace Nutting prints, so cannot say whether; it also has one small corner bump and the mat possibly has been trimmed, it may well have been. All items are thoroughly and conservatively graded and all condition issues are noted; all items are vintage or antique and may have slight signs of gentle use.
