SRN: Please note that these are likely to be printed works with a few painted additions rather than gouache paintings.

(Veuillez noter que ces portraits sont probablement des œuvres imprimées avec des rehauts de peinture et non des gouaches. Datés du XXème siècle et non pas du XIXème.) Good condition overall, a few pin holes and a slight discoloration to the background. The portrait with the archer turning his head to the left has a small horizontal 6.5cm criss to the upper right of his head.
