Condition Report

The Goldsmith - discolouration to sheet and tipped to the mount at the edges, not examined out of frame. 


We believe the Goldsmith is quite possibly a 17th  century impression, the portrait of his father (?) is a later impression, the third portrait looks to be late 17th century.
