19th Century Pair Qing Dynasty Reverse Painted Mirrors
About the Item
19th Century Pair Qing Dynasty Reverse Painted Mirrors depicting Court Scenes. Featuring Royal Figures and their servants and advisors. All wearing colourful traditional garments. A clean design rendered in vibrant shades and geometric shapes.
To create the reverse glass paintings, artisans traced the outlines of their designs on the back of the plate and, using a special steel implement, scraped away the mirror backing to reveal glass that could then be painted. Several layers of paint were applied to one side of the glass, in the reverse order of those laid down on an easel or panel painting, while the painting would be viewed from the other side.
