Consolle In Carved And Gilded Wood With Marble Top - Florence, 17th–18th Century.
Consolle in carved and gilded wood with marble top. Florentine carver after a design by Giovanni Battista Foggini (Florence 1655 - 1725). Florence, 17th–18th century.
136 x 66 x h 91 cm.
Wall console entirely carved in gilded wood, with a period polychrome marble top, contemporary with the base, featuring an ochre-yellow ground with black and grey veining. The structure rests on a single central support in the form of a winged herm, its arms outstretched to carry the broad lower rail. The figurative motif, traceable to the designs of Giovanni Battista Foggini, court sculptor and architect to the Medici, unfolds in scrollwork and foliage in a fully Baroque idiom. The apron features arched openings on both sides. The base has a shaped, multi-lobed plan. The marble top, of demilune profile with moulded edges, displays particularly fine radial veining.
Good overall condition. Gilding wear consistent with age and use. Minor localised losses.
