    I found these 2 old (? are they old?) paintings at a local thrift store yesterday. I love the rabbits; they actually made me say "aww" although I'm not sure they are actually old/antique.
    The one with the men on horses I'm more sire is old or at least old-er (besides being painted on wood).
    I found M. Walker on invaluable but it was a etching so I'm not sure if it's the same artist. Besides which mine has a name(?) on top if the M Walker.
    So, can anyone make out the artists' names - and tell me if they are good paintings?
    As always, thank you for your help!

    Has anyone seen his signature? One good thing is I found a oil on canvas by him on partner - before that all I found we're watercolors!

    The first one is cute, but it has the look to me of a modern Chinese piece.

    The rabbits are a Chinese factory painting. The other does look old.

    Perhaps this Webber factory. Entry dates to 1889 St. Louis directory.
