About the Item

Note the neoclassical influence of the decorative elements and the composition of the furniture, highlighting the figure inspired by the classical mythology of the upper part (it is possible that it is the goddess Aurora or Eos, or Diana-Artemis, Selene, etc.). It has a close relationship with examples from the French Empire, both in the decoration and in the lines of the piece. Note, however, that these full-length mirrors were very common in European palaces, but it is not so common that they are presented with two tables to support elements of clothing or candlesticks, a detail that enhances the present example. The fashion of the full length mirror is introduced in Spain in the reign of Ferdinand VII. From the psychic swing mirrors of the beginning of the 19th century, it was later passed to the fixed ones with full body, adding supports (usually for luminaires). Compare with prominent mirrors such as those preserved in the Museum of Romanticism in Madrid, in the Royal Palace in the same city, or one preserved in the Museo Cerralbo in Madrid (inventory VH 0556), made between 1834-1866, that has two round auxiliary tables. Size: 175 x 65 x 290 cms.
