American Classical Carved Giltwood, Plaster Mirro

Good American Classical Carved Giltwood, Plaster and Eglomise Bipartite Looking Glass, second quarter 19th century, the upper panel eglomise floral painted, each corner of the frame with a carved giltwood leaf cluster, h. 44", w. 24".

Good American Classical Carved Giltwood, Plaster and Eglomise Bipartite Looking Glass: The corners have scattered chips to their tips and shrinkage cracks. The gilded surface looks like it has old touch-ups, but most of the gilding appears to be under the painted areas. The reverse-painted scene looks original as well.
