About the Item

Large wall mirror attributed to Danish architect Vilhelm Lauritzen and executed in Scandinavian elm wood with a beautiful grain. Classic 1930 functionalism and superior craftsmanship makes this amazing piece a wonderful addition to any interior style. The mirror is in great condition retaining the original mirror glass. Vilhelm Lauritzen was one of Denmark’s most important architects and a father of Danish Modernism. Today, many of his projects remain as lasting examples of what was then a new and revolutionary approach to architecture in which form followed function. Throughout his career, he maintained that architecture should be an applied art that serves all, not just the privileged few. Among Lauritzen’s most famous and acclaimed works are Copenhagen Airport’s first terminal (1939), which is now known as the Vilhelm Lauritzen Terminal, Radiohuset broadcasting building in Frederiksberg (1945), Vega music venue in Copenhagen (1956), and the Danish Embassy in Washington D.C. (1960).
