Dear Michael,

Thank you for contacting Mearto with your appraisal inquiry.

A watercolor painting depicting a city or with mountainous landscapes. The paintings appear to depict traditional Japanese landscape watercolors, which makes sense based on the traditional paintings that were made after WWII.

Based on the information provided and research allotted, these works are likely created by a Japanese artisan working for an export workshop. Signed. The estimate provided is based on recent auction estimates and results of comparable landscape watercolors, dating to the early 20th century.
