Antique Rock Of Ages Reverse Glass Painting Religious Folk Art Tattoo Victorian
This extremely rare Rock of Ages reverse glass painting came out of an old estate in eastern Pennsylvania. It is a museum quality piece that is in very good condition for its age. It dates back to the Victorian era. Most likely 1890’s. You will notice that the artist has included some pieces of mother-of -pearl shell on areas of the cross. These are affixed to the back side of the glass. A beautiful combination of folk art and a classic image. There is minor wear to the frame, but NO cracks in the glass. The frame measures 29.25″‘x 25.25″. The painted image measures 19.25″ x 15.25″. It weighs over 10 pounds. All photos were taken outdoors. It was challenging to capture this piece without reflection or glare. It presents even better in person. Pictures serve as additional description. Please contact me with any questions.
