AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

A superb rectangular frame in gilded bronze, mounted on two curved feet with a rear support. The back is fitted with a glass panel.

The front is richly chased with Rococo-style motifs: volutes, acanthus leaves, and garlands. An open pediment forms a kind of crest at the top, decorated with flowers and a small putto mask (angel). The side uprights feature relief female busts surrounded by scrolls. The bottom crosspiece is adorned with a mascaron of a satyr or Bacchus flanked by wings, a common symbol in Rococo iconography.

Frame made circa 1880.

Internal dimensions: 10 x 14 cm
External dimensions: 19 x 29 cm
