Important Italian Mirror by Max Ingrand for Fontana Arte

About the Item

The whole composition is one of the highpoints of Venetian Craft and the modern genius of Fontana Arte. Missing glass back panel. Literature: Fontana Arte 6, manufacturer's catalog, unpaginated. Max Ingrand: Du Verre a la Lumière, Martin-Vivier, pg. 216 for similar concept. Wright, Important Design, December 15, 2011, #185 for similar model.
