Description and details

Rectangular frame with lowered arched centered top. The interior molding has a repeating pod decoration, emphasized by gilding that alternates burnished and worn areas, a sign of time. The outer surface is smooth and more restrained, highlighting the decorated band. The model recalls the type of Italian frames of the neoclassical period, characterized by linearity and formal sobriety combined with neat decorative details. The proportions and workmanship make it suitable for holding paintings of vertical format, particularly sacred subjects or portraits.
