18th Century French Louis XVI Mirror

A French Louis XVI period painted and giltwood mirror from the 18th century with carved Liberal Arts Allegory symbolized by musical instruments and scores. This painted and giltwood mirror, celebrating the Liberal Arts, is adorned with an allegorical array of musical instruments and scores intricately carved into its crest. Prominently showcased are gilded oboes and flutes, their gleaming forms standing out against the green painted background. These musical motifs, signifying the arts' contribution to the cultural milieu of the Louis XVI period, are complemented by carved musical scores, adding to the mirror's historical significance. Flanking these central motifs, you'll find delicate flowers, their understated elegance providing a graceful touch to the overall design. The mirror plate reveals a slight aging that imbues it with an authentic vintage charm.
