Painted Four-Panel Floor Screen
-
Description
A very unique charmingly decorative double sided screen, painted oil on canvas, seemingly an oversized idea of the sketchbook or travelogue. One side of the screen shows an imaginary landscape, the reverse of the panels each depict a different country, "Espana," "Turcia," "Italia," "Ungria" with a courtly scene painted on top, followed in the middle with a representation of native people and at the bottom a typical landscape.
Open size: 1" thick, 80" wide, 87" high
