John Brandard (British, 1812-1863): A pair of watercolours, one depicting figures in Orientalist dress in a landscape with a temple beyond, possibly the Acropolis, signed 'John Brandard' lower right; the other a lady & military gentleman coversing in a landscape, signed with monogram, each H 12 x W 9.5 cm & inscribed 'Heath' to the mounts. Note: Most notable for his work as a lithographic artist, Brandard designed hundreds of illustrated title-pages for sheet music. The present pictures represent rare examples of his work in watercolour; it is possible that they were designs intended for use in a publication by Charles Heath who is known to have worked with Richard Brandard, the present artist's brother.
