Book Description
Three hundred years of reverse painting on glass are presented in this richly-illustrated volume of more than 100 previously unpublished Hinterglas pictures. A unique feature of this book is that, for each reverse painting, the print on which it was based has been identified and is fully illustrated. The close link between reverse glass paintings and prints has long been mentioned in the relevant literature, but this is the first book ever to take this interesting subject as its central focus. A well-founded discussion of the topic precedes the illustrations, which are complemented not only by details of the most important technical characteristics but also by informative commentaries on the artists and the content of the pictures. The result is a fascinating journey through three hundred years of reverse painting on glass.

Chinese Reverse Glasspainting 1720-1820
Author: Thierry Audric
Publisher: Peter Lang Gmbh, Internationaler Verlag Der Wissenschaften
ISBN: 9783034338219
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 240
Book Description
Displaying a talent for combining aesthetic sensibility with scientific rigor, the author has given new life to something that once excited European passions: an original, non-academic art at the forefront of the 'new technology' of the time. For decades, aristocrats of the Old World and then American collectors (the latter at the end of the eighteenth and beginning of the nineteenth centuries) spent countless sums on the purchase of these works, which were worth a fortune. These wealthy collectors of curiosities of all types were also most certainly great dreamers seeking a worthy setting for their dreams. Unbeknownst to them, their endeavours had much greater scope, creating and nourishing the conditions for a rare encounter between two worlds: a golden age of atypical collaboration, a combined adventure between China and Europe.
