Newlyn Harbour, watercolour on Arne board, signed TH Victor, c1960.
Detail.

The watercolour on board painting is in good condition but with subdued colours probably due to absorption by the hand made paper mounted on the board. This has given the painting an aged appearance. The scene is a classic view of Newlyn Harbour. The painting is titled in the artist's hand to the lower edge left of centre below the lobster pots and signed in his usual manner in the lower rh corner.

Good. The watercolour and gouache on paper study of a paddle steamer in a moderate sea is in good condition with good colour; there are a few light foxing marks in the sky. The study is quite detailed and the sea is well structured with an authentic feel. The ship is currently unidentified but presume it is a railway company steamer as the artist was a member of The Guild of Railway Artists (G.R.A.) at that time and the guild was formed in the 1970's. The painting is signed R.P. Milliken in his distinctive style in the lower rh corner.
