Indian Reverse Painting on Glass - Large

Indian Reverse Painting on Glass - Large
Full of colour, character and history, these Large Size Indian Reverse Paintings on Glass are charming examples of a decorative art form that has captivated collectors for centuries. Each piece is individually hand painted using the traditional reverse glass painting technique, where the artwork is created on the reverse side of the glass. This intricate process requires exceptional skill, with every detail painted in reverse order before the final background is applied.
Every painting in our collection is completely unique. Subjects, colours, brushwork and composition vary from piece to piece, ensuring that no two are ever exactly alike. Adding further charm and authenticity, each painting is presented in an original antique frame. These frames are old and naturally show subtle variations in colour, finish, style and proportions, reflecting their age and individual history.
As every painting and frame is handmade and original, sizes do vary slightly. 
The approximate dimensions to the outside of the frame are:
Landscape Style: 38 cm (w) x 28 cm (h)
Portrait Style: 28 cm (w) x 38 cm (h)
Please note that these measurements are approximate. If you require the exact dimensions of a particular painting, please contact us before purchasing and we will be delighted to provide precise measurements.
