Pair of Antique Graphite Drawings on Houses on Folded Paper for bedside table Some paint loss and scrapes

Some paint loss and scrapes

to my eye it doesn't get much better than that very primitively carved face

with the "50" at the end just about fading away

with lots of years on them

Pair of Antique Graphite Drawings on Houses on Folded Paper for bedside table Some paint loss and scrapesI'm selling this these as found, two separate drawings on one folded sheet of paper, but they could be very easily divided in to two. Graphite on rag type paper, late 19th very early 20th century, I just think they're lovely and satisfying drawings that feel like portraits, precise and specific, but drawn freehand, which makes they feel warmly personal too. Paper size, as folded in half: 7" x 5 3 4". Easily cut down the middle to yield two 7" x 5 3 4"
