This dramatic and vibrant antique Japanese reverse glass painting captures a dynamic battle scene in exquisite detail. Measuring 12 inches wide by 23 inches tall, the composition features two warriors on horseback—one in blue, the other in red—engaged in mid-charge with fierce expressions and flowing robes, surrounded by swirling clouds and banners. The artistry is vivid and precise, with intricate facial expressions, finely painted armor, and bold motion that brings the moment to life.
Rendered in the reverse glass technique—where the image is painted on the back side of glass and viewed from the front—this piece demonstrates high craftsmanship and theatrical storytelling. The painting is framed in a traditional dark wood frame with a brass hanging mount featuring an auspicious Japanese symbol, adding authenticity and elegance.
Whether displayed in a hallway, study, or curated Asian art setting, this work offers a captivating glimpse into classical heroic legend and Japanese artistry. See less
