About the Item

Very beautiful Louis XIV / Regency style glazing bead mirror Beveled glass. The glass is finely and beautifully etched with flowers and foliage. Wooden structure. Mercury mirror. Very decorative, stylish and elegant. Italian work. Venice. XIXth The Regence style appears between the reign of Louis XIV and that of Louis XV. Origine: property in France Missing a small peak head rosette at the bottom of the mirror. This lack is almost invisible. The Louis XIV style is a furnishing style covering more or less the period of the reign of Louis XIV (1661 to 1715). This style is characterized by the majesty and richness of its furnishings. The Louis XIV style follows the Louis XIII style. The furniture is increasingly luxurious, but unlike previous styles, it is almost no longer inspired by architecture. There are two kinds of furniture: ceremonial furniture richly decorated with veneers and inlays (especially with André-Charles Boulle), solid gilt wood and bourgeois furniture in solid wood. The style is characterized above all by its absolute symmetry and an important and ostentatious dimension. The Louis XIV style is of Italian and ancient inspiration. The style emerged with the advent of the reign of Louis XIV in 1661 and lasted until the end of the 17th century. In 1690, on the death of Lebrun, decorator to the King, the style declined and was gradually replaced by the Regency style. The Palace of Versailles is obviously extremely and lastingly marked by the Louis XIV style. His long reign made it possible to impose the unique style of the Grand Siècle and to leave a lasting mark on the decorative arts of this period of classicism. The Louis XIV style will also reach its peak when the royal court moved to Versailles in 1682.
