This are two chromolithographs of James Ludovic Lindsay, the 26th Earl of Crawford, who was Scottish scientist and politician. The images are caricatures.
The lithographs were created for Vanity Fair by Sir Leslie Ward, who signed his works as "Spy".
One lithograph is called "Astronomy", dated May 11, 1878. The background on Lord Lindsay is printed on the back. Printed by Vincent Brooks Day & Son. Lith.
Another one is called "The Transit of Venus", created for Vanity Fair supplement by Hentchel-Colourtype, London. Probably a bit younger as Lord Lindsey depicted on it looks older.

It says 1908.
The condition is good, some minor scratches on the frames.
Would like to know if it is better to sell them together or separately, if possible.
