This dissertation examines the production and reception of reverse paintings on glass by modern American artists. Rockwell Kent (1882-1971), Marsden Hartley (1877-1943), Joseph Stella (1877-1946), and Rebecca Salsbury James (1891-1968) created paintings ranging from kaleidoscopic abstractions to spare still lifes by layering paint in reverse order on the back of a glass support. As the first critical study of modern American reverse painting on glass, the dissertation employs the frameworks of material culture studies and feminist art history to focus on the materiality of glass and on the gendering of the medium as feminine. I argue that modern American artists engaged diverse nineteenth-century glass painting precedents while also responding to glass as a new, quintessentially modern material. In the Introduction, I explore Kent's reverse-painted mirrors to show that he conceived of glass painting as simultaneously old-fashioned, feminine, and modern. Chapter 1, on Hartley's still lifes of 1917, addresses the mutability of the "usable past" in relation to Bavarian hinterglasmalerei and tinsel painting. Chapter 2 underscores the ubiquity and multiple meanings of glass in New York City through analysis of Stella's reverse paintings of technology and nature. Chapter 3 investigates the relation of James's 1930s work to New England tinsel painting, New Mexican tinwork, and new materials and Precisionist form. My research on reverse painting on glass reveals that ideas about the usable past, gender, and new materials and techniques were mutually constitutive in the early decades of the twentieth century in America.
