AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Up for auction, an antique carved wooden frame, it features side twisted-column uprights and rich carved cornices with acanthus leaf or floral motifs, typical of period cabinetmaking around the 19th century, circa 1900. The back of a wooden frame assembled with a miter joint shows diagonal reinforcing crosspieces and evident worm holes, characteristic of old untreated wood not recently treated.
The projecting sculptural elements at the top and bottom recall Baroque or Italian Neo-Renaissance taste.
The surface shows signs of age, wood oxidation and small holes from wood-eating insects.
It is simply a precious object of notable importance and great visual impact given its size.
Frame ready to house an important oil on canvas or antique painting.
Frame height 77 cm width 56 cm
Inner height 27 cm and width 26 cm
