These prints all have very grand Baroque borders, decorated with scrolls, shells, foliage, putti, satyrs etc, and look very good when framed up as a set. This set are all trimmed within the platemark, giving very narrow margins, hence for framing these are best hung within the mount with Japanese paper
CONDITION: These are good impressions, all clean, but as above are mostly trimmed within the platemark, leaving just a few millimetres all round. Three are loose mounted on board, and one is backed, but on old paper.
