Bilateral pictures
 

I found this yesterday on the page in Facebook Louvre picture of the artist Daniel da Volterra , whom I remember only that he was a pupil of Michelangelo, " dressed " figures " of the Last Judgement ."

Louvre painting " The fight of David and Goliath " was opening for me - I know this is the first example of a dual picture in which a scene is shown from two sides. It can be avoided and considered as a sculpture.
The painting was done in 1550-1555 years ,
135 x 172cm .

I know I have a dual picture:

Valentin Podpomogov "Shooting" (1983 -84)

The tradition of two-sided embroidery is still preserved in China

A separate sided view of embroidery that require higher skills, is the execution of two different stories on different sides of one leaf (two different landscape , a tiger and a peacock , a cat and a dog )! At the same time hides embroidery threads a single image by another thread , and is seeking a full match the size of the objects depicted - looking at the colorful peacock , it is impossible to guess that on the opposite side is embroidered with yellow-brown tiger !!!

At this, my information is limited to bilateral patterns.

Dear friends, the colleagues who may be interested in any two-sided paintings?
