![]() |
|
This large extraordinary mirror is the mate to a vertical one displayed in the new Classical Gallery at the Metropolitan Museum in New York City. It certainly was made in the same New York workshop circa 1820. The oversized corner embellishments add a dramatic element. In addition to the impressive size, it is distinguished by its original condition. The gilt surface, all 3 panes of glass and the backboard are original. There is a small amount of loss to areas of gilt and gesso which we can have filled in if desired. Dimensions are: Length 63" Height 27" $ 7500. |
