Set of Chinese Figurative Mid Century Watercolor Landscapes

About the Item

These are two paintings depicting figures in a natural landscape setting among trees and other garden settings. The palette is pastel mixed with neutral tones. Based on the hairstyles and wardrobes, our appraiser says the works appear to be Chinese. There are characters and seals in the negative space of the paintings. This could be the name of the artist, but seals are sometimes just stylized additions to artwork. The paintings are of traditional subject matter but the style is relatively modern. from the middle to latter part of the 20th century. The colors are strong and the silhouettes are detailed. The condition of the watercolor paintings is good. The vertical orientation of the landscapes creates an interesting focal point for this set of watercolors.
