Rare Set of Nine Original French Watercolour Designs & Illustrations

Beautiful group of nine (9) original French watercolour paintings - mainly of a floral and landscape nature. The works date between 1904 and 1941 - with the majority being around the 1910's and 1920's period.
The paintings are all inscribed extensively, as well as being dated and some signed by their artist. What their original purpose or intention was, we are not sure - possibly music programme covers or designs.
Either way, today, they offer the interior designer a wonderful and very unique opportunity to acquire such a rare grouping of original antique artwork...
