hello

is anyone able to translate the markings on these paintings please?

they look very well done to me and i also like the frames, i believe they are early 20th century, and the translation may be able to help me learn a little more about them 🙂

thanks

George

Left side picture,
小楓生　　-　Ko-Fui (Name of a younger woman, Ko
is a diminutive prefix in front of names - Small
Fui) - Seemingly the name of woman depicted
Seal reads,
年　-Toshi　　-Given or　art-name of the artist

Unfortunately the inscription on the second picture is too blurred to read.

With regards,
I.Nagy

than you very much for the translation, much appreciated!

do you recognize the artist? the only one with the name Toshi i can find was Toshi Yoshida, his paintings were done later into the 20th century

thanks again
