Actually are you sure it's a bubble frame because the image is painted onto the wood.

It kinda looks like it but I'm not sold on it. Take a look at the reverse.
Thanks.

The flash reflection in you first pic looks like a glass dome over the painting. If so, convex/bubble glass frame portrait. If not, it's made to look like one as they were very popular. Either way, early 20th C.

curved glass?

No there is no glass at all. It's a hand painting and it's glazed over
