Late Eighteenth Century Pine & Gesso Chimneypiece, with Classical Central Tablet
About the Item
A Late Eighteenth Century, Pine and Gesso Chimneypiece with Fluted Pilaster Columns and a Central Tablet Depicting Venus, or Perhaps Aurora, on a Chariot
With swags of the vineyard and motifs showing sheaves of corn and agricultural tools, the chimneypiece appears to be a celebration of fertility. Acorns and oak leaves in equal measure, line the aperture and claret jugs, presumably full, are carved on the corner blocks.
