[QUOTE="afantiques, post: 215688, member: 25"]In the 19th C drawing and water colour painting were popular middle class pastimes, reasonably competent exponents were quite widespread as any 19th C autograph and many scrap books will show. Trees were a popular topic for practice and in the shed somewhere I have a late 19th C book of tree drawings for amateurs to copy with examples from quite simple to more complex like this one. I suspect this was something of that nature, that no attribution would ever be possible, and I don't really see any commercial value.[/QUOTE]
