Tall Louis XVI Mirror, Attributes Of Hercules Trophy, Gold Leaf Gilt Wood - Late 18th Century

Tall Louis XVI mirror, wooden frame gilt with gold leaf. Louis XVI period (late 18th century). This is a provencal work topped by a military trophy addorned with the attributes of Hercules (a lion's head and a club).
typical work of the slight elegance of Provence in 18th century : one feels, despite a very French style, influences of Italy. Beautiful, tall piece, very decorative. In good condition ; original 18th century gilt cleaned by our gilder. The mercury glass is also the original with a slightly stained mirror. We have chosen to keep it as it is for its charm, but are able to have it replaced by another mercury mirror on request.
