Do you think they were left to the gallery by local people who had done the European tour? I expect there will be records to say who donated them and when...

A good find, i think, G.
If you enlarge them twice details are given about the paintings.

Though sadly it doesn't name the person/s who donated them.

From memory, that's sometimes recorded on the frames.

Talking of frames, perhaps some were removed so the whole image could be photographically recorded.
