Native man with headdress and tusks through his ears is the only larger work - watercolour on white paper, a few small scattered dirt and fox marks and a hint of acid staining around the mount, plain brown card mount and fairly modern glazed frame with no labels verso.
The other four are framed ensuite but look to be on a slightly differing paper, Maingtha Old Man - paper discoloured to a light buff tone, a few tiny scattered fox or dirt marks, colours good.
Maingtha Old Woman - paper more of a cream tone, acid staining showing around the mount, a few scattered small dirt and fox marks
Artist Himself - cream paper again scattered fox marks and acid staining otherwise good
Modern Burmese girl - paper discoloured to a light buffish tone and showing some undulation probably due to damp, a few small scattered dirt or fox marks.
All framed ensuite to the larger work. These are all framed and if being shipped abroad we recommend that all works removed to save postage costs.
