Pair of Framed Child Portrait Prints by Broske

This lot features a pair of small, framed portrait prints, likely reproductions of paintings, depicting young children. Each print is housed in a matching rectangular frame made of what appears to be a metallic or metallic-finished material, possibly brass or a patinated gold-tone metal, featuring a rope-twist or reeded outer edge and a textured inner bevel. The frames have a classic, somewhat ornate design. The print on the left shows a fair-haired child, possibly a toddler, with rosy cheeks and a happy expression, wearing a straw-colored hat with a dark band and light blue overalls, holding a small tan-colored teddy bear. The artist's signature, 'Broske', is visible in the lower right corner of this print. The print on the right depicts a similar fair-haired child, again with a joyful, open-mouthed smile, wearing a purple hat adorned with lighter floral elements and light blue overalls. The child's hands are up near the hat, suggesting a playful pose. This print also bears the signature 'Broske' in the lower right corner. Both images evoke a sense of innocence and childhood charm, rendered in a soft, somewhat idealized style with a notable innocence and warmth, characterized by soft brushstrokes and gentle color transitions. The visible condition appears good, with no obvious signs of damage, fading, or significant wear on the prints or frames based on the provided images. The aesthetic suggests a style popular in the latter half of the 20th century, possibly from the 1970s to 1990s, often found in decorative home settings. The craftsmanship on the frames is decorative, while the prints themselves are mass-produced reproductions of original artworks.
