A Pair of Silver Gelatin Prints of Edward William Wyon's Sculpture Echo - A pair of vintage silver gelatin prints depicting the Parian marble sculpture Echo by the British sculptor Edward William Wyon (1811-1885). The monochrome images capture the seated neoclassical figure from two distinct angles, one in near profile and the other in a three-quarter view, both set against a dark, tonal background. Each print is inscribed with the title Echo in a lower corner, with additional partially legible markings beneath. The photographs are mounted in matching black wooden frames featuring decorative inner bead mouldings and glass glazing. The reverse of the frames reveals aged and brittle brown paper backings with wire hanging fixtures. Dimensions: 8 inches by 11 inches (each frame).
