Estimate$2,000 – $4,000
Housed in a custom shipping crate. The lower left corner is separated at its joint, but does not appear to have any losses. It would need to be repaired and secured. Additional age splits along the top where the carved decorations meet the frame; these do not appear to impact stability. The paint likely refreshed, though not recently. The gilt decoration is dull and largely lost. The plumes probably broken off at their joints and repaired in the 19th century.
