Cabinet of Antwerp, 17th century
Cabinet of Antwerp, 17th century.
Ebonized wood. Metallic details.
Measurements: 58 x 70 cm.
Flemish cabinet covered by a double door decorated with geometric moldings on the outside. The structure of the furniture, prismatic, is symmetrical to the interior, based on three streets. The side sections have four drawers each, while the central, larger section has a central portico with a door and a checkered floor. Two drawers as a plinth elevate the cabinet, while an upper drawer as a cornice finishes it off. The interior of the doors and the front of the drawers are decorated with reddish and golden polychrome. Therefore, compositional clarity is sought, as was usual in Flemish cabinets and bargueños of the Baroque period.
