About the Item

PRESENTING a LOVELY Pair of 19C J Saile Scottish Highland Watercolors. Both watercolors feature a Scottish Highland scene with mountain in the background, mist, rock outcrops, heather, lochs or drinking pools etc. They beautifully capture the colors of the Scottish Highlands with the yellow/gold gorse and purple heather with misty mountain in the background. There appears to be the silhouette, of a castle on the mountain top. From circa 1880 by the artist “J. Saile”. Both signed, one on the bottom right the other bottom left. We cannot find any record for the artist, but in our opinion these watercolors are quite accomplished and we believe that ‘Saile’ is a Scottish surname. Framed and under glass, in their original ebony veneered wooden frames with gold interior rim/border. They are in very good original condition, with no evidence of losses to the paintings or foxing or fading. The colors are still very vibrant despite their age. A few cracks to the ebony veneer on the frames through age but nothing significant. Provenance: From a Quality Dallas Private Collection.
