This Italian Sansovino use to house a portrait by the Dutch painter Bartholomeus van der Helst. That painting has since been sold and reframed aligned with the desires of the client. This leaves an extraordinary empty vessel to be used decoratively for a fine interior. Please get in touch for mirror samples.
The frame has been enlarged at a later point at the corners, perhaps to fit van der Helst's picture. Areas show re-gilding and partial restoration, yet the condition is good with a lovely patina.
