Double-Leaf Doors

Pierre Rousseau

Cleveland Museum of Art

Double-leaf doors by Pierre Rousseau. Two large, wooden doors made of light-colored wood with a beige and brown color scheme. The doors are divided into sections with raised rectangular panels. The top panels feature carved figures, possibly mythological or allegorical, surrounded by foliage. Below these are elongated panels with oval-shaped inlays depicting people and ornate stands. Further down, there are carved scenes of people and decorative elements. The bottom panels display symmetrical, curved designs around a central vase-like object. The doors have a handle on the left door and a dark-colored base. The doors are set against a plain gray wall.
