Pair of Mid-Century Watercolor Landscapes by Geruig

This lot consists of two vintage mid-century watercolor landscape paintings on paper. Both paintings depict winter scenes with snow-covered ground and leafless trees. The color palette is muted, featuring variations of white, gray, brown, and possibly some subtle green from the evergreens, along with touches of muted red or orange likely representing buildings. The images are rendered with visible brushstrokes characteristic of watercolor technique, suggesting a somewhat expressive or less detailed style. The paper appears to be a light color, possibly aged to an off-white or cream hue. Each painting is presented within a mat with an opening measuring specifically 12.75 inches by 15.75 inches. The mats appear to be a neutral, light color, contrasting with the dark-toned frames. The frames are simple with a dark finish, possibly wood or a composite material. The outer dimensions of each framed piece are 22 inches by 19 inches. The artist's signature, discernible as 'Geruig,' is present on both watercolors, typically in a corner near the bottom. The overall condition appears to be good, with no significant visible damage or discoloration evident from the image. The style aligns with landscape art popular during the mid-20th century. The craftsmanship in both the watercolors and the framing appears to be of adequate quality, suggesting them as decorative art pieces rather than fine art masterpieces, though the artist's recognition could impact this assessment.
