Glass hanging screen with yellow pear wood edge inlay painting

[Yellow pear wood border inlaid glass hanging screen]

In the middle of the Qing Dynasty, it was 93.5cm high and 70cm wide
The hanging screen is oval in shape, with a frame made of rosewood and inlaid with painted enamel pieces with curly grass patterns and cotton knot patterns. The center of the screen is a glass oil painting depicting the scene of a foreign trade port at that time. The landscape, trees, and stones on the screen can also be seen in some traditional Chinese painting styles, while other landscapes such as characters, buildings, and boats, as well as the materials and colors used in painting, are all European style. This kind of glass oil painting requires painting in the opposite direction on the back of the glass, which has certain difficulties. It was introduced from Europe to Guangzhou in the late Ming and early Qing dynasties and formed a scale, affecting all parts of the country. This work should be imitated by a painter from Guangzhou, China in Western landscape oil painting
