<p>[QUOTE="Figtree3, post: 1895404, member: 33"]Not much help here, but what I can tell of the technique reminds me a bit of a picture that my grandparents had hanging in their home for many years. Theirs was a different scene -- a large ship in the water, and I believe it was docked. These grandparents were both born in Germany, although they met in the U.S. as young adults. My grandfather worked on ships for most of his adult life, and I suppose the picture belonged to him. It did appear to be reverse painted, although the image could possibly have been printed on the back of glass.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
