Michel Martens Rare Large Art Mirror 1970s
About the Item
Very rare art mirror by the renowned Belgian glass and mirror artist Michel Martens.
Art mirrors by Michel Martens (1921-2006) are rarely seen on the market - as his production was very limited and the pieces were already high-end niche items when new. Although one of his more modest designs, this mirror is breathtakingly beautiful in the right setting. A true conversation piece.
Due to its size this mirror art piece is a defining piece in a room and certainly gets a lot of attention. Just imagine this mirror in a grand hallway or next to a beautiful lounge chair.
The quality and execution are breathtaking, as is the condition of this particular mirror - having only one owner and coming straight from a wonderful villa at the Belgian coast.
Although quintessentially 1980s, this mirror has a remarkable modern and timeless appearance due to the simple and straightforward design. Being one of his more subtle and modest looking designs, this mirror can be used in most mid-century and modern interiors.

Michel Martens
Michel Martens was a glass and mirror artist from Belgium. He was an autodidact and first taught himself the technique of stained windows. Martens designed about 7000 meters of stained glass between 1947 and 1989 for churches and monasteries. From 1968 onwards, he started to lose the church as the main client and therefore started to develop a practice in which he worked with mirrors that were also suitable for the private sector. Martens's artworks are part of the collection of the V&A in London and the Louvre in Paris.
