PAIR of watercolor coastal scenes, unsigned, circa 1880, on heavy quality watercolor paper, 11" by 18" inside the old mats (18" by 25" in identical framing), found in Essex, Massachusetts.

I imagine these are by a listed artist who worked in the Cape Ann region or in that part of coastal New England...
