Frame; Italy, 18th century. Gilded carved wood. Gilding and carving losses. Preserves xylophagous damage. Measurements: 182 x 135 cm; 154 x 106 cm (light). Italian frame with a rectangular structure made of carved and gilded wood. The piece is structured in several registers, with a filigree that runs along the inner perimeter formed by a carved ornamentation based on small balls that alternate with flat spaces, in such a way that a rhythmic pattern is created. The inner part of the frame, which is more prominent in terms of design and size, has an ornamental finish based on vegetal motifs, which have faded over time in the lower part of the frame. Finally, the design of the outer perimeter consists of a band of geometric plant motifs.
