Victorian prints under glass

From my family archives, a small collection of ca 1900 prints.  These are on very thin paper and mounted face-down on glass about 1mm thick, so intended for viewing this way, from the other side of the glass.  I have never seen anything like this and am wondering how and where they would have been displayed.  The views are mostly local to the North-East - Sunderland Museum, Eggleston Abbey but also one of a boat party.  This has no identification but looks vaguely Scandinavian.12244845455?profile=RESIZE_710x
