Mirror frame, 20th century. Wrought iron. Measurements: 76.5 x 54.5 (light); 105 x 75 (total). Of rococo influence, the most outstanding feature is undoubtedly the floral decoration around the edge. The craftsman has conceived the object as the enjoyment of the image itself surrounded by roses with pink corollas and green leaves. The author of this unique piece of decorative art contextualises the seasonal decoration, taking his inspiration directly from the beauty of nature. Symmetry, abundance of material and exquisite forms predominate. The piece has been forged, painted and designed with great skill and is also a reference point for interior decoration. The leaves have a small patina of rust on them, deliberately created by the author.

Estim. 500 - 600 EUR

Following models by FRANCESC VIDAL JEVELLÍ (Barcelona, 1848-1914). Modernist chair, ca.1900. Wooden structure, red velvet upholstery. In good condition. Measurements: 112 x 47,5 x 47 cm. Modernist chair whose design is inspired in models of the cabinetmaker Francesc Vidal. The quality of the carving can be appreciated in every detail: the coup-de-fuet, bouquets and lanceolate leaves of the backrest, in the openwork of the waist and in the turning of the legs, joined with chambrana. The design responds to a historicist or syncretic style, taking different styles from the past and channeling them into the current of Catalan modernism, of which Vidal was a prominent member. A cabinetmaker and decorator, Francesc Vidal traveled to Paris to direct the exhibition of his father's bookbinding samples at the Universal Exposition of 1867, and there he had the opportunity to meet other young artists, to study at the School of Decorative Arts and to travel repeatedly around Europe. In 1878 he established himself as an art dealer, and in 1883 he inaugurated a building designed by Vilaseca, an unusual polytechnic complex, where he would work intensely from then on in the production of quality furniture, as well as its complements in glasswork, metalwork and foundry. In his studio Rigalt and Masriera collaborated in the foundry, and as designers Joan González, Gaspar Homar and Santiago Marco. Vidal's clientele included the high bourgeoisie and official corporations, and he made the furniture designed by Gaudí for the Palacio Güell. He exerted a great influence on the society of his time, and practiced patronage with talented young artists such as Pau Casals, Isaac Albéniz, C. G. Vidiella, etc. Simón Gómez, by portraying this outstanding cabinetmaker, carried out perhaps the best portrait of the Catalan painting of his time. Works by Francesc Vidal are currently preserved in the National Museum of Art of Catalonia and in the National Museum of Decorative Arts, as well as in important private collections. Good condition
