Lakshmana and Hanuman

The reverse glass painter Rambold (1872-1953) taught the artists of the Blue Rider how to paint behind glass. On his easel was a reverse glass painting with an Indian motif. Only one photo of it still exists. It is unclear whether he painted it himself or acquired it somewhere.
