Large Montparnasse Frame In Carved Wood And Stucco – 20th Century
Large Montparnasse-style carved wood frame covered in stucco, 20th century.
This emblematic model of the School of Paris is characterized by its deeply carved decoration with irregular and rhythmic reliefs, typical of frames used in Parisian workshops and galleries in the Montparnasse district at the beginning of the 20th century.
The deliberately animated surface, combining striations, hollows, and stylized geometric motifs, captures light particularly well. The frame retains a beautiful light patina, revealing in places the preparation and nuances of the stucco, which enhances its decorative character and authenticity.
This type of frame was highly prized for displaying modern works, especially those of the School of Paris.
Its large size allows it to accommodate a substantial painting.
Period: 20th century.
Materials: carved wood and stucco.
Type: Montparnasse frame.
Condition: good overall condition, minor wear and chips to the stucco are visible, consistent with its age and contributing to its overall charm.
Dimensions:
External dimensions: 88 cm x 72 cm;
Visible dimensions: 68 cm x 53 cm;
Rabbet dimensions: 70.5 cm x 55.5 cm
