Pair of Overdoors circa 1780, Supraporte

About the Item

These stunning overdoors feature beautifully crafted gilded ornaments showing an amphora ranked with leaves. The central image is surrounded by an elaborate gilded border creating balance and structure. The beautifully painted panels serve as a perfect background and really make the ornaments stand out. One panel has a few cracks as you can see in the pictures. On the second panel there is a small color abrasion (dark stain, see pictures). As you can also see in the pictures the panels are not completely symmetrical (one side is slightly cut diagonally). The gilding is in good condition. I'm not quite sure about the origin of the panels.
