**Set of 3, 19th Century Allegorical Reverse Glass Paintings** This captivating set of **three 19th-century allegorical reverse glass paintings** presents richly detailed narratives imbued with symbolism and classical themes. Each painting is executed in the traditional reverse glass technique, providing a smooth and reflective surface that enhances the vibrant palette and fine detailing. 1. **Painting 1 (Left Panel):** This scene portrays a dramatic encounter, likely a moment of judgment or persuasion, set against a distant landscape. A figure in a flowing blue robe gestures emphatically toward a well-dressed couple, perhaps symbolizing conflict, intervention, or moral decision-making. The background includes a sweeping view of the countryside, with figures in the distance adding depth and context. 2. **Painting 2 (Center Panel):** The central panel features a pastoral scene steeped in allegorical significance. A central figure dressed in red, resembling a shepherd, commands attention under a radiant sunburst. Surrounding characters appear in moments of tension and repose, including a reclining figure and a soldier-like character. This composition evokes themes of guidance, struggle, and divine providence, with the bright sky and natural elements reinforcing the allegorical tone. 3. **Painting 3 (Right Panel):** The final panel depicts an intimate interior scene, with two seated women engaged in conversation, one gesturing emphatically as a standing male figure observes. The setting includes detailed furnishings, such as a writing desk, a red draped curtain, and objects hinting at scholarly or domestic pursuits. This tableau may represent themes of wisdom, counsel, or moral reflection, supported by the characters' thoughtful expressions and elaborate dress. Each painting is framed in its **original dark wooden frame**, complementing the vibrant colors and enhancing their display value. The set embodies the **19th-century European fascination with allegory and storytelling**, making it a significant piece for collectors of reverse glass art...

WWII, how are you? Private Theater: Gay American Soldier in Reflection, Original WWII-Era Gouache, Signed CSG A highly nuanced, emotionally layered, and visually accomplished original painting in gouache and watercolor on Whatman drawing board, signed CSG lower right. This rare mid-20th-century work portrays a seated U.S. Army Air Forces officer—smiling faintly, cigarette in hand, and with a small black-bound diary resting on his lap—lost in reverie as smoke from his cigarette rises and transforms into the visages of three idealized male figures. Rendered in an illustrative realist style with tonal sensitivity and surreal suggestion, the composition invites interpretation as an interior portrait of desire, intimacy, and memory—quietly coded, emotionally sincere, and possibly autobiographical. The figure wears a regulation-issue A-2 leather flight jacket, iconic of U.S. Army Air Forces personnel during WWII. The jacket is detailed with a personalized, hand-painted circular patch depicting a lion rampant in a blue roundel—a heraldic symbol of power, pride, and possibly self-invention. An American flag patch is affixed to the left shoulder. The jacket, traditionally worn by bomber crews, officers, and pilots, functions here not only as a marker of military identity but as a gendered and cultural signifier—suggesting the complex intersection of duty, masculinity, and private identity. The slightly open collar, relaxed posture, and cigarette suggest the officer is off-duty—physically grounded but mentally elsewhere. The seated figure’s companions—summoned in smoke—appear above and behind him in a dreamlike procession: a helmeted infantryman, a pilot in goggles, and a hat-wearing civilian (?) man posed in pin-up style. Each face is rendered with tenderness and idealization, not as ghosts or casualties, but as romantic or erotic conquests: remembered lovers, fleeting encounters, or imagined partners. Their expressions, softly lit and emotionally present, reflect a form of desire neither tormented nor tragic. This is not a meditation on loss but on intimacy remembered, perhaps treasured. On the table beside him rests a small bronze Buddha...
