Antique Neapolitan console with a marble top, made of wood and marble, dating to the early 20th century.
Description from the seller
Antique console with marble top and a painting of Vesuvius.
An important and elegant Italian console with a grand scenographic presence, characterized by rich sculptural work and a suggestive central painting. The piece, dating from the late 19th to early 20th century, features a majestic shaped top in veined yellow marble, perfectly integrated with the sinuous line of the underlying structure.
The front is embellished with an elaborate carved and gilded frieze, decorated with phytomorphic motifs executed in relief with exceptional craftsmanship. Below the surface, two pairs of caryatids in a classical style, modeled with great anatomical accuracy, serve as a scenic support for the structure. The lower part features a shaped platform enriched with multiple orders of molded cornices.
In the center of the console stands a large, hand-painted round depicting a view of the Gulf of Naples with Mount Vesuvius smoking in the background, fishing boats, and characters on the shoreline. The artwork is framed by a relief decoration inspired by Eastern motifs, while at the top there is an ornamental element depicting a mask-like figure.
The rear structure, consistent with the period, shows the original wooden panels. A rich, important, and highly decorative piece of furniture, ideal for prestigious entrances, salons, and reception areas.
