18th Century George III Carved Mirror in the Manner of Thomas Johnson
Located in London, GB
A George III Giltwood Pier Mirror
In the Manner of Thomas Johnson
An exceptionally detailed design; the superb carved decoration housing a shaped rectangular plate and undulating mirrored borders; the inner frame closely tied to the outer frame and leading the eye around the mirror. The grandiose masterful carving incorporating C-scrolls, flowering branchwork, stylized icicles, acanthus leaves, and distinctive architectural follies and figures which firmly place this mirror within the canon of Johnson's greatest designs. The confident execution is a great testament to the technical prowess and artistic creativity of one of the greatest carvers and designers of the eighteenth century,
circa 1760.
Provenance
Edward Cecil Guinness, 1st Earl of Iveagh, Farmleigh, Co. Dublin, (1880?-1927);
The Earls of Iveagh, Farmleigh, Co. Dublin & Elveden Hall, Suffolk (1927-2018).
Thomas Johnson (1723-1799)
Thomas Johnson was one of the most skilled carvers and furniture designers in Georgian England. Drawing inspiration from the Fables of Aesop, the rococo, China, and the idealised rustic life, his work is whimsical, exuberant and witty. Chippendale borrowed freely from his work. Johnson was a founder member of the 'Antigallican Society', a group who excoriated the French taste.
In addition to its relation to Johnson's designs, this mirror also reflects the influence of Lock, the great master with whom he worked for a period. Lock published many sketches and pattern books, including A New Book of Ornaments for Looking Glasses in 1752, introducing several idiosyncratic features which Johnson would adopt such as the small decorative urns...

Late 18th Century Gilt Baroque Wall Mirror, Handcarved - Italy ca. 1790
Located in Lichtenberg, AT
Elegant 18th century gilt wall mirror from the late baroque period around 1790 in Italy. The artfully handcarved, partly open worked frame shows a lovely gold leaf plated surface and is adorned by elaborately carved floral motives, covered by an amazing looking patina. The highlight builds the large, slightly forward tilted top carving. Red shimmering spots that shine through the slightly abrased surface are caused by the so-called "bolus", the substrate/ ground for gilding and confer this late baroque wall mirror an extravagant and luxurious appearance at the same time. The backside is closed with an old card board and a metal ring makes wall mounting easy. An extraordinary shaped, elegant over 230 years old antique wall mirror...

18th Century, Venetian Baroque Carved Giltwood mirror
This mirror was made in Venice, Italy, in the second half of the 18th century. The frame, in carved and gilded wood, has the characteristics of the Venetian baroque.
The internal wooden band, with 90-degree angles in the lower portion and with a cambered and curvilinear profile in the upper part, is carved in vegetable-shaped bas-reliefs. At the top a rich cymatium encloses another mirror. Rich perforated volutes, rocaille and phytomorphic elements, create movement to the whole and streamline the mirror making it graceful. To crown, there is a floral element. Also, below the frame includes a small mirror, while on the sides continue the friezes carved with flowers, leaves and scrolls rocaille.
This small mirror, very refined and of great decorative effect, can be easily placed in different environments, placed over consoles or antique drawers...
