Description

Offered is a charming pair of vintage 1942 reverse-painted silhouette pictures by S. Colef Corporation, depicting romantic courting couple scenes inspired by Victorian/Colonial eras. Each piece features black silhouettes painted on the reverse side of convex “bubble” glass, layered over a printed lithograph background.

This classic technique creates a beautiful dimensional effect, with the curved glass casting a soft shadow that gives the figures a lifelike, almost double-image appearance. The artwork is housed in ornate, textured wood frames with intricate detailing and a muted gold finish that has gracefully aged over time.

A lovely and nostalgic duo - perfect for adding vintage romance and character to any space.

Please review all photos carefully, as they are part of the description. Feel free to reach out with any questions - and as always, happy bidding!
