Two pair 19th century French Louis XVI painted interior doors are a remarkable find, indeed! The set was designed as two distinct pairs, with each pair having a distinct left & right door, and a total of four distinct relief works, one on each door! Three tailored panels define the door architecture, with the relief work appearing on the uppermost panel. One door features a musical instrument theme with various instruments "suspended" by ribbon tied by a bow at top, with a musical score in between. The ribbon and bow motif are continued on the other three panels, but the themes change. The second door depicts subjects involved in fishing, from nets to seaside foliage, even a fish on a pole!

18th Century Louis XVI Three-Panel Arched Screens with Painted Floral and Architectural Motifs. An exquisite and rare set of three panel screens from the Louis XVI period, crafted in the South of France circa 1790. Each arched panel is meticulously hand-painted with neoclassical decorative motifs emblematic of the Louis XVI aesthetic, featuring garlands, musical and artistic trophies, scrolling foliage, and urns filled with delicate florals. The panels are arranged in harmonious symmetry, unified by their softly aged ochre-toned ground and framed in carved and gilded wood. The lower sections are adorned with stylized classical shell forms and acanthus flourishes, while the upper registers display suspended emblems- such as a painter's palette, hunting horn, and straw hat- each rendered with graceful trompe l'oeil illusion and entwined with ribbons. Executed in tempera or distemper on canvas over wood, the screens retain a remarkable original surface and patina, exhibiting the poetic elegance of late 18th-century Provincial craftsmanship. These striking architectural accents are suitable for refined interiors. These screens may be used as freestanding partitions, mounted wall art...
