Abstract
A number of glass
workshops were created in the course of activities of the so called fellowships
of glass in the last third of the 18th century in the area of North Bohemia,
borderlands of Lower Silesia and Kladsko. Production of these workshops is
an important part of the reverse painting collection of the North Bohemian
Museum in Liberec. The first contributions to this collection were made by Josef
Václav Scheybal, ethnographer, art historian and acknowledged folk culture
expert after he had begun working for the museum. Reverse paintings are the
main part of the collection, except for a number of illusive paintings made by
professional artists and eglomisé. The advanced production of glass, which
sustained so many workers, established the dominant role of the glassmaker type
reverse paintings in the North Bohemia. The delicate and detailed work of the
restorer is highly valued in museums pursuing authenticity. For this reason the
North Bohemian Museum has been cooperating with restorer Jana Hrevúšová
since 1990. Thanks to her work, grants from the Ministry of Culture and the
founder, 91 reverse paintings and two parchment paintings in mirror frames
have been restored so far.
