Italian Neoclassical Revival Mirror with Greek Style Façade, circa 1890

An Italian neoclassical revival vertical hand-painted wooden mirror with distressed finish and antiquity-inspired Silhouette from the late 19th century. Born in the turn of the 19th-20th century, at a time when neoclassicism had the wind in its sails again, this Italian mirror features an elegant Silhouette, inspired by the architecture of Greco-Roman temples, with its triangular faux-marble pediment, sitting above a simple rectangular frame flanked with Doric style pilasters. The light cream color, accented by the marbleized effects, along with the elegant classicism of the piece, will allow this Italian wooden mirror, circa 1890-1900, to be a striking presence in any home.
