    Sorry about the poor pics, these are my Mothers and I had no time to photo the backs or do the fronts properly plus there's the reflective glass to contend with too. They are handpainted, I think on silk. The backs have old brown paper covering and I think they are pretty old, but I've no idea of the seal or signature.
    It would help if I knew where they were painted. About 20ins high.Thanks. image.jpg image.jpg image.jpg

    No, I’m afraid not. I did think of checking them out with Christie’s Auction house. Is yours a flower painting too?
