Watercolour with Assocated Published Image","description":"\u003cp\u003eI have three of these unique and rare early 1950s illustrations for children's books.   \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThey have been painted with gouche \/ thick watercolour paint and the image has ten been mounted onto card. It comes with the black and white image of how the original drawing was made into a black and white image for publication. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAll three of my images featured vintage seaside motifs. They are being sold unframed - and would look great with a new window mount and frame - and hung in a child's bedroom or in a hallway in a seaside holiday cottage. They are one-off pieces - and you wont find another one like them. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThey are all unsigned and have a naive quality to them - which just makes them all so sweet. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis one consists of three separate sections. Three is a an image of a fisherman and another of a fishwife. The black and white image for the fisherman survives, but sadly the black and white one for the fishwife is not present. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt seems to have been reproduced in black and white for publication - but I have no further information on any publication the image might have ultimately appeared in. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThey are in fairly fine vintage condition - there is some little bits of spotting on the black and white reproduction print and a little marking on the colour one (please examine my photographs carefully)- but given they are working images etc - this is quite acceptable. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eI have taken lots of images for your inspection. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDimensions:  Each panel measures 28 x 11.5 cm\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe works will be sent to you with Royal Mail Recorded. Any excess that you might pay in the postage will be refunded to you.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eI just love these wee works - had them many years now before deciding to list for sale. It was a hard decision. \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Iconic Edinburgh","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53506554167675,"sku":"26\/5\/2024 MG","price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0271\/1902\/6240\/files\/naive-school-1950s-seaside-illustration-for-a-childs-book-watercolour-with-assocated-published-image-vintage-938.webp?v=1786095786","url":"https:\/\/www.iconicedinburgh.co.uk\/products\/naive-school-1950s-seaside-illustration-for-a-childs-book-watercolour-1","provider":"Iconic Edinburgh","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
