9 x 12in.
Estimate £250-350

Both works no doubt somewhat faded but still retaining fair strength of colour, Inside West Gate still retains some blue in the sky. Equally the paper looks a little discoloured and rather flat so may well be laid down.
One or two tiny dirt specks although most are on the glass rather than the works. Essentially both in good condition.
Modern card mounts with slim gilt frames. Details of artist on labels verso.
