    Hello all! I picked up this watercolour recently at an auction. Sold as a "Gibson Girl" by N.Clarke (came from BC, Canada). I can't seem to find anything that fits the name. It's quite well done, do you think it was perhaps a keen amateur? I removed the back in the hope that something may be written on it but alas there isn't! Measures 12"L x 9"W. Thanks for any info you might have :)

    What age would you say this copy was?

    The toning on the front an back of the art, its frame, suggests it's probably made about the same time as the original.

    1912 appears to be the year it was printed. Your copy looks to be from around that date.
