Mixed Lot of Four Framed Pictures Including a Continental Church Watercolour
This lot comprises four framed pictures offered together. The principal item is a framed watercolour of a continental church, set in a gold-coloured frame with a cream mount. Further pieces include a print titled St Michael’s Mount, signed Rhys Jenkins, in a black frame; a signed print of a city skyline dominated by Gothic towers, in a dark wooden frame; and a print titled Confidences, showing two elegantly dressed figures, in a black frame.
Condition, Originality and Collector Interest
The watercolour depicts a church with a tall tower and gabled roofs above a row of rooftops and a riverside arcade, rendered in soft earthy tones and pale blue sky. The St Michael’s Mount piece is a landscape of a rocky island fortress above calm turquoise water, with a signature visible on the mount. Each picture is glazed and mounted within its frame. Some general wear is evident to the frames and glazing, and the lot is offered as seen. Prospective buyers are advised to inspect the pictures in person before bidding. The combination of a continental watercolour, a named coastal subject and signed prints may appeal to collectors of British and European topographical art and to those assembling a varied group of framed decorative pictures.
