This fine Italian mirror is Rococo in style and covered in gold leaf. The gilt wood mirror features an inset rectangular frame enveloped by a sea of sprawling acanthus leaves. The piece offers a deep sense of movement with the outreaching carved foliage, combined delicately with order and balance in the inset frame and cornered edges of the outer acanthus leaves. Its a piece almost as attention worthy as the onlooker.
