Productdetails

Gorgeous matching pair of Vintage Borghese Art Accessories framed silhouette portraits, featuring an elegant gentleman and lady depicted in late 18th century Colonial / Regency inspired dress. The gentleman is shown in profile holding a tricorn hat and walking cane, while his companion wears a full period gown and carries a slender walking stick. Their crisp black silhouettes stand dramatically against warm aged cream backgrounds, creating the classic profile portrait look associated with early American and European decorative arts. Both silhouettes are presented in substantial wood frames with antiqued gold gilt finishes featuring layered molded edges and wonderful naturally aged character. The rubbed gilt, darkened areas and scattered surface patina give the frames an authentic old-world appearance that works beautifully with the period subjects. The reverse retains the wonderful vintage construction, including original paper backing, metal hanging rings and an authentic red-and-white BORGHese factory label. Produced by Borghese Art Accessories, these are vintage decorative pieces dating approximately to the 1930s–1950s rather than actual 18th-century portraits. The artwork itself depicts the fashions and styling of the late 1700s. Fantastic displayed together as originally intended and especially well suited to Federal, Colonial Revival, Neoclassical, Georgian, Regency, Traditional, Dark Academia and collected vintage interiors. Perfect for collectors of Borghese Art Accessories, silhouette portraits, Colonial silhouettes, Federal decor, Regency decor, Georgian decor, Neoclassical wall art, gilt wood frames, antique style portraits, gentleman lady silhouettes, vintage profile art and historic inspired wall decor.
