Subject:Chinese Court Painting - 19th c.???
Posted By: Tim Wed, Jan 26, 2011 IP: 98.254.38.62

Can someone help with the period that this painting was made. Style looks similar to that of 19th c. reverse glass paintings with the women's faces are painted white with puckered lips.

Photos can be viewed here...

Painting measures about 16" x 20"

Thanks.

yes, a similar look, but this is a recent imitation of such Qing scenes.

fyi the reverse glass paintings were primarily made for export and not in imperial ateliers.
