About the Item

ITALIAN ROCAILLE-CARVED SILVER-GILT WALL MIRROR IN THE ROCOCO TASTE Probably Northern Italian circa 1870 Item # 403NDK18A An incredibly playful and expressive Italian wall mirror, it is bold full of vigor while being light and elegant at the same time. The dramatic flair of the almost extreme projection of the crest and the excessive curves of the scrolling elements along the sides and bottom are subdued by the sheer delicacy of the carving work. A thinness and airiness pervade the frame through the careful thought given to the design; in execution, the craftsman pierced the frame and carved each scrolled element to be thin with relieved edges to create as much negative space as is practical. The result allows the scale of the mirror to appear smaller than it actually is so that we see incredible presence, texture and drama without being overwhelmed. Note the very fine execution of the rocaille carvings throughout. The reverse is largely untouched with all boards, nails and glue blocks remaining in place. The glass is quite early and shows the effects of age on the silvering without becoming distracting. A very fine acquisition - stylish and very at home even in the modern interior. Measurements: 62 5/8" H x 39 1/2" W Condition Report: Silver-gilt refreshed throughout and both faux and intentional wear for a chaotic distressed surface; hairline cracks to carvings throughout; backboards appear to be untouched; hardware is modern (probably mid-20th century); original pane of glass with silvering loss and scuffs; ready-to-place.
