A striking and decorative 19th century giltwood overmantel mirror of classical inspiration, surmounted by a richly detailed frieze depicting the mythological scene of “Anania and her chariot.” The finely cast relief features a dynamic procession with figures, horses and chariot, accompanied by a winged figure in flight, all rendered with excellent depth and movement.
The frame is flanked by fluted pilasters with Corinthian capitals, supporting a moulded cornice with dentil detailing, giving the piece strong architectural presence. The original bevelled mirror plate sits neatly within the frame, adding light and depth while complementing the warm gilded finish.
Elegant and imposing, this mirror would sit beautifully above a fireplace, bringing a refined neoclassical feel to both traditional and contemporary interiors.
