FINE PAINTING ON GLASS.China, early 19th century. 50x34.5 cm. Young couple in an elegant interior. The man is seated on a bed talking, while the woman is embroidering and listening to him. In the foreground, a maid is preparing tea. A pine bough in the upper edge, bonsai pots and the rim of a tiled roof indicate that the perspective is that of looking inwards from a terrace. To the right: an open window with a delicately painted natural landscape, from which the influence of European painting tradition can be clearly gathered by effects of light and shadow. Original wooden frame.
