Large Votive Chapel In Tropical Wood Marquetry - Mexico, Circa 1800
Spectacular marquetry in tropical wood veneer on a solid mahogany frame. Secret drawer. Original glass. This early 19th-century Mexican pavilion is a true masterpiece of cabinetmaking and decorative arts, a work that embodies the technical mastery and aesthetic syncretism of the region's crafts. Its structure, at the crossroads of the dominant Neoclassicism of the period and a deeply local ornamental exuberance, testifies to the talent of the master craftsmen who elevated wood to the status of a jewel. 112 x 61 x 60.5 cm
