Thank you for the references and identification of the script. I had suspected the paintings were fairly recent. Strictly judging from the wear patterns from the cloth being folded along with the amount of thinning to the material and I would guess early to mid 20th century. This seems to line up with both the decline in use of the script as well as the art form itself.
