    Description

    Rare pair 19th Century Chinese reverse-painting on glass.
    The first reverse-painting on glass depicts two young boys playing on a verandah. The older boy is practicing his handstands while the younger boy is acting as his helper.
    The second reverse-painting on glass depicts a young boy riding his hobby horse in a pavilion.
    I like to hang the painting of the child riding the hobby horse, who is looking to his right, hung to the right, as if he is watching his brother perform a handstand.
