French Massive Painted Gold Framed Mirror

Offered by: Fireside Antiques

Description
A gorgeous and massive French 19th century carved and painted gilt frame with new mirror plate. This hand-carved frame which once housed a large painting has now been repurposed into a fabulous Neoclassical style gilt mirror. Its beautiful details include wonderfully carved acanthus leaf corners and a deep reeded frame with thick inner trim and molded edges. A smooth space in the bottom center holds a plaque engraved with “JEAN D’ESPOUY” in all caps which signifies that the frame held work by artist Jean d’Espouy (1891-1921), a known French painter and watercolorist who exhibited at the Salon des Artistes Francais starting in 1910. This lovely and lustrous framed mirror is a great decorative find. Impressive in size and classically styled, this mirror would look amazing in the right location. Be sure to view all the images to get a closer look.
