Chinese Carved Architectural Panel with Fruit and Flora, c. 1850

c. 1850

About the Item

It’s difficult to pinpoint what makes this handcrafted panel so impressive: the artful relief carvings of seasonal fruit and lush, foliage-filled vases or the spruce wood’s prominent and expressive grain. Both are beautifully preserved in this hundred-year-old, three-part panel that was once part of the architectural format of a well-appointed Qing-dynasty home.

Chinese Reverse Glass Painting of Taoist Immortals, c. 1900
Located in Chicago, IL
Popularized during the Qing dynasty, reverse glass painting requires an artist to essentially work backwards, starting with details and shading before adding color and form. Lending the finished work a subtle three-dimensional effect, this exacting technique doesn't allow for any corrections, and is only revealed to its full effect when the glass pane is turned around. This example dates to the late 19th century and depicts the Taoist immortals He Xiangu...
