Dating from circa the 1950s, the paintings are executed in an impressionistic manner, with a subtle and harmonious use of colour. The fluid handling of the watercolour medium gives the compositions a delicate, expressive quality, with an appealing sense of atmosphere and spontaneity. The two works form a particularly attractive pairing and display beautifully together, offering a cohesive decorative presence characteristic of mid-century watercolour painting. Information concerning the life of Maria Rajecka is retained verso, providing additional context to the artist and the works. Both watercolours are presented beneath glass within more recent black frames, providing a clean and understated contrast to the compositions. Presented in good vintage condition, with appropriate signs of age consistent with their date and medium.
