This exceptional late 19th century repousse tin frame with its elaborate baroque embellishments and BOLD polychrome likely was a frame for a retablo and later adapted as a mirror. Measuring 16″ x 10 1/2″ overall with 7 5/8″ x 5 1/2″ reveal, it has some of the best, chippy, dry polychrome I have seen on a mirror of this type. The graphic raised designs of urn, sunflowers and tobacco leaves have great charm and the paint is stable. Its old mirror pane is badly fogged/aged and the tin back is loose on one side and held into place with yellowed masking tape. Its hanger has been replaced and there is an ineffectual later blob of solder attempting to re-attach the tin back.
