A Fine Louis XV Style Painted, Giltwood Three-Panelled Screen

A Fine Louis XV Style Giltwood and Oil on Panel Three-Panelled Screen, Painted By Juderías Caballero (Spanish, 1867-1951).

Signed ‘J. Caballero. Paris’.

The giltwood frame enclosing three panes of bevelled glass above three painted panels, on one side depicting dancing nymphs and putti, the opposite, depicting a statue and flowering trees.

This three-leaf screen is finely painted with beautiful woodland nymphs representing the ecstasy of Spring. The dancing figures writhe as they spiral upwards, they are enchanted by cupid and encircled and enraptured by flowers. Compare the ceiling at the sumptuous ballroom at the Cerralbo Museum in Madrid which is painted by Juderías Caballero with cloudborne nymphs.

France, Circa 1895.
