Empire Mirror

Alvin M. Gully

National Gallery of Art

The image shows a tall, rectangular decorative mirror with an ornately carved wooden frame. The frame features two prominent columns on each side. Above the mirror, there is a diamond-shaped panel with a floral motif set against a light blue background. The wood frame is a warm, reddish-brown color, complementing the subtle hues within the mirror and panel. Positioned vertically, the mirror occupies the central portion, with the decorative panel located above, and the wooden columns forming the left and right sides of the frame.
