Status: Sold
A large and handsome Italian carved giltwood picture frame in the Rococo taste, the deep, wide molding richly worked with scrolling shell and acanthus-leaf ornaments at the corners and finished in warm antiqued gilt. A recessed linen-toned liner surrounds the opening, setting off the gilding and giving the frame a substantial, old-world elegance well suited to an oil painting, print, or mirror. The frame accommodates artwork sized 20 x 24" within a generous overall footprint of 30 x 34". It carries the mellow patina of age, with wear consistent with a period frame. An impressive, decorative Italian frame with hand-carved detail and real presence — a fine choice for a collector or decorator seeking to present a favorite work in classic Continental style. Outer 30 x 34", inner opening 20 x 24"
