FAQs

A reverse glass print is created by adhering a mezzotint or engraving face-down onto glass, floating off the paper backing until transparent, and applying oil paint directly to the back of the image. Popular during the 18th and early 19th centuries, these decorative artworks frequently featured allegorical, religious, or portrait subjects.

Traditional examples utilize hand-blown flat glass, copperplate mezzotints or engravings, tree resin varnishes, and oil paints. They were typically finished with moulded giltwood or stained softwood frames.

Authentic period examples often display hand-blown glass with natural wobble, air bubbles, or minor surface distortion, alongside fine paint crazing on the reverse. Microscopic traces of original paper fibres from the transfer process are usually present behind the paint layer.

Position the piece as a focal point above a mantelpiece, console, or within a curated gallery wall combined with minimalist modern sketches or muted botanical studies. The rich hues and gilded framing complement classic traditional, eclectic, and transitional interiors.

Dust the frame and front glass using a dry, soft microfibre cloth without spraying liquid cleaners near the edges. Maintain a stable indoor temperature and humidity level away from direct sunlight to prevent paint separation from the glass substrate.
