EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases a magnificent Large North Italian carved pine mirror from the early 18th century. Measuring an impressive 262x178 cm, this exquisite piece is part of a private collection and represents the exceptional craftsmanship of the Italian School during that era. The rectangular bevelled plate takes center stage within an elaborately-carved surround adorned with enchanting putti, graceful dolphins, and delicate shells. The deeply scrolled foliage and flower-filled cornucopiae further enhance the ornate design of this mirror frame. A shell-carved cresting, flanked by charming putti riding dolphins, adds a touch of whimsy to its overall grandeur. Although the original plate was later replaced, it is believed to have been painted or gilt originally. This detail only adds to the allure and history behind this remarkable work of art. Captured beautifully in this print by eChristies Images courtesy of Bridgeman Images, every intricate detail can be appreciated - from the meticulous carving technique to the cherubim-like figures known as putti that grace its surface. This stunning Large North Italian carved pine mirror truly embodies elegance and sophistication while showcasing the artistic brilliance of its time.
