With a Painted Seaside
SOLD April 2009 |
Japanese ambrotype ca. 1870s, showing a woman in kimono posed in front of an elaborately painted backdrop with seaside scene. Housed in a period kiriwood case without lid, dimensions of case 4 x 2.75 inches (10x7 cm).
The painted seaside background is extremely unusual, and reminds us of other Japanese art forms.
