Hello, Can someone please tell me how old these 10 7/8" x 7 1/2" prints might be, and identify the artist? Any assistance would be greatly appreciated! Thank you! David.

You have two repros of prints originally by Utamaro. The left is titled "Takashima Ohisa". Here is an original at the Boston MFA:

and the right is "Young lady blowing on a popen" 1790. Here is an original at the NY MET:
