Snow Scene - Probably executed on a coloured or tinted paper. In addition to some possible time staining which is evident in areas where pigment has not been applied. Colour depth broadly good. No evidence of cockling. Not examined out of the frame.

Second Example - Very slight cockle along top edge. On a muted palette broadly in good order. Likely on a tinted paper with some possible light time staining. Not examined out of the frame.

The works are framed almost ensuite. Might be described as a matched pair if not conceived as such.
