About the Item

Large mirror made by a Florentine woodcarver working in the early 18th century (it can be hung on the wall in either direction) Tuscany (Florence) Louis XIV style Carved and gilded wood Maximum dimensions: 135 x 119 cm. (mirror 94 x 79 cm.) Good condition, small defects and losses, mirror with a slight scratch This is a prestigious, large parade mirror, richly carved and gilded with leafy scrolls, a notable example of the decorative repertoire typical of Louis XIV, with particularly sumptuous elements in the carving, typical of the Baroque period of Tuscan cabinet-making, from the end of the 17th or the beginning of the 18th century. This work of art, with its beautiful architectural design, can add further importance and elegance to a prestigious environment, and is intended for those who wish to own a precious and unique object. The density of the decoration is a characteristic element of the evolution of the Baroque style, as an emblem of splendour and power. From a structural point of view, the carving consists of spiral volutes and carved acanthus leaves, emphasised by the exceptional thickness of the frame and the concentration of the carving. Frames of similar workmanship, richly carved with leafy scroll motifs, were widespread in the 17th century ADDITIONAL INFORMATION: We organise and take care of the shipment of the purchased works, both in Italy and abroad, through professional and insured carriers.
