A pair of vertical format watercolours on paper depicting traditional British rural scenes. Each work features a shepherd with a flock of sheep and a border collie dog traversing a rugged mountainous landscape, evocative of the Scottish Highlands or the Lake District. The paintings are executed in a representational style characteristic of mid-20th-century British pastoral art, utilising a restrained palette to capture atmospheric light and terrain. Neither work appears to be signed or dated on the front. Both are housed in matching ornate gilt-finished frames with wide cream-coloured mounts.
