Atmospheric and authentic set of wooden wall plates from ca. 1890–1900, a beautiful example of bourgeois interior decoration from around the turn of the century.
Such decorative pieces were widely manufactured in Germany and Austria at the time, and found their way into stylish living rooms and music salons of the middle class.
The portraits depict iconic composers, including Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart and George Frideric Handel—figures who, around 1900, symbolized culture, sophistication, and musical evolution. At a time when music education flourished and the piano occupied a central place in the home, this type of wall decoration was particularly popular.
The warm wooden frames and the classically inspired portraits give this set a charming, timeless look. They form not only a decorative whole but also a piece of cultural history that fits perfectly in both classic and eclectic interiors.
In good, used condition with light signs of age, consistent with the age and character of the pieces.
Technique: Chromolithography + varnish on turned solid wood, including metal hanging eyelet
Theme: cultural status & classical music
Figures: Mozart & Handel
Dimensions refer to the diameter of the plate. The portraits themselves have a diameter of 26 cm.
