Mirror in bronze frame "Angels", Holland

Mirror in bronze frame "Angels", Holland.

Angels-one of the most common images found on the canvases of artists. Another thing is that their appearance in the paintings changed with the eras, artistic trends and even fashion.

Initially, Angels were depicted as ordinary people, most often at the age of Mature youth. Ancient Christian art in the image of Angels adhered to simplicity and even asceticism: a white tunic, a thin belt, no unnecessary decorations. Since the IV century, Christian painters began to distinguish angels from people due to special attributes-a halo and wings. In the sixth century, Angels are often portrayed as Wanderers with a staff in his hands, and from the VIII century — with a full set of attributes: wings, lights and staff, and the staff sometimes end in crosses.

Byzantine artists begin to clothe Angels in their paintings in luxurious attire, in the Renaissance Angels become meek and elegant, often playing music. At the same time, in Italian and German painting appear baby angels-"putti" (from Italian. putto — a small boy).

The mirror - perhaps the most magical piece of furniture and, unfortunately, unjustly deprived of, in terms of decor. The scope of this simple subject is to be placed in the bathroom and in the interior of the hall, sometimes as the inner walls of the cupboard.

Decorating potential of glass surfaces, huge. Try this facet diamond, and you will see how the new lights will sparkle with your decor. Find a worthy place for your mirror!

In good vintage condition.
