William Lionel Wyllie (1851-1931)
'Untitled view of the Thames, London', etching, signed in pencil lower left, 22cm x 26cm, a Nathaniel Sparks (1880-1956), 'Salcombe Harbour', etching, signed in pencil lower right, 22cm x 38cm and a Johnstone Baird (1872-1935), 'Oban Bay', etching, signed in pencil lower right, 32cm x 21.5cm (3)
Both the Nathaniel Sparks and Johnstone Baird have 'James Connell & Sons, Fine Art Dealers and Publishers, 47 Old Bond Street, London, W1' old labels to the reverse. All with some scuffs and marks to the frames. Minimal foxing and some marks in places, predominantly to the mounts, not the etching themselves. The Thames etching does have some foxing and marks to the etching as evident in photos.
