If you search the series name you will find comparable prints for sale and get an idea of asking prices. I think you got a good buy, but the value will suffer due to the paper condition. I can't tell about the Rappinis. Best bet is to take them to a local art museum, or at least to someone who can recognize a watercolour. They would be generically classed as Orientalist.[/QUOTE]
