never with such pictures are not met.
Paired pictures.
Oil on canvas.
Size 23.3 cm to 36cm.
Can dated the 18 th century, and whether the artistic value.
Thank you.

The second picture.
Some photos made with a flash at an angle to avoid glare.
Sorry for the quality, but only until such.

Pictures are excellent, on-selling themes.
It is a pity that in this state and the small :)>.

I wonder where they fished.
It seems to me that it was a wall.
If so, it would be a great success.

Unless it's a wreath.

Zea, very good things of artistic tsennost.Podobnoe in the 18th century and in the murals and icons done with Piscator Bible (Dutch engraver of the 16th century.) Ukrainian baroque much taken away.

I think the biblical story has nothing to do with, probably it could be a battle of the Knights of the Saracens.

Just the style from there.

Toinen, I agree with your opinion , what it looks like the battle of the Knights of the Saracens . Today we gave in the restoration. The state, by and large, good, great losses on the background , the corners and the lower part under a layer of olify.Otkroetsya will look good . Board without parketirovaniya , and nowhere behavior. If anyone interested I expose photo ends , back, some of the details . Thank you all very much. After restoration , it may be sold. Can someone tell me potsene . Can be personal.

Perhaps depicts Saladin and Richard the Lionheart.
Suitable for a pair of portrait, the more so because they were "familiar".
I think that you - a copy of a series of engravings of the XVI century, but with someone - it is necessary to look for.

It seems to me that you hurry ! I had to spend at least tehnologichekuyu expertise to make a chemical analysis of soil , pigments, binders, to set the time of writing, pictures , and, depending on the result , move on.
Restoration of severely complicate the task.
