A Large Monumental Classical Gilded Wood Mirror with Carved Grapes and Original Glass and Gilt, Probably Boston, c.1820
This mirror has a molded cornice with acorns over a
frieze, which is centered by grapes on a vine. The center panel is flanked by
ogee-arched niches filled with foliate plumes over a rectangular plate. The
mirror’s conforming frame has a rope twist turn. Gilding is first, as is the
mirror, which retains its original backboard.
