Antique Questions Forum / Re: 19th century (probably) oil paintings

Thank you for advice. I will try to make better photograps when I will be at my parents home, there are more paintings than these, one of them is signed MÁRK L. (or Z.), I found out it probably could be from painter Márk Lajos but I am not certain.. My grandparents and grand grandparents (mother told me it is quite possible few of the paintings were gifts from her grandfather but is not sure) lived in Austria-Hungary (back then it was, he was born in 1892), now it is Slovak rep.

I do not know if these were originally with or without signatures, canvas do not look like it was tightened but I am not sure, I can only guess.. I asked my parents but they do not know much more, only that the second one was cut off when re-framed, not much of professional work, but they are certain there was a signature before re-framing.. other two paintings nobody knows.. Grandfather passed years ago and I am not sure if he knows anything about it too, as far as I know he collects these oil paintings and most of them were gifts from his friends.

Hi, sorry for my english for I am not native speaker, but I will try my best, feel free to correct me of course..
I have issues in indentifying some signatures / paintings, my grandfather was a collector of old oil paintings, some of them without signatures ( I was told they were re-framed years ago ), If anyone have any idea about these I will be thankful..
