Antique Frame Baroque Style Gilded Linden Wood Italy XVIII Century

Small carved and gilded frame from the Baroque period, made in the first decades of the 18th century. The frame is carved in lime wood without applied parts; it is decorated with symmetrical leafy scrolls that end in a coat of arms at the bottom and in a shell on the top, on which a winged cupid flies down, bringing a crown to the figure depicted in the portrait, probably a bride metaphorically represented as Venus, according to the typical attributes, shell and Cupid. The similarity with the more famous frame attributed to Parodi, in which the narration of the Judgement of Paris is depicted, is evident: the moulding of the frame is the same as the two putti placed in the shell, in that case placed at the base of the frame, seem very close, a detail that makes us think of a production by a student of the same workshop.
