French Louis XV Style Giltwood Mirror with Hand-Carved Liberal Arts Symbols

A French Louis XV style giltwood mirror from the 19th century, with carved décor symbolizing the Liberal Arts. The carved crest, adorned with a lute surrounded by a laurel wreath, symbolizes the Liberal Arts. Perfectly harmonious with the central presence of the musical instrument flanked with the scrolling foliage accented with petite rosettes, the mirror enchants with its delicate décor. The mirror plate, showing some signs of aging, is surrounded by an elegant frame, adorned with lovely arabesques of scrolling motifs and highlighted with petite tassels on its upper corners.  show less
