Eglomise Painting of a Family at Their Dinner Table, Signed Fihser, Sculp
Circa 1830-50
Glass
The Églomisé painting depicts a mother and father with four children and a baby, sitting at a table eating. The mother is offering the baby who is in a high chair soup from a spoon as the father and another child look on.
Two other children are touching their drinking glasses in a toast. A French poodle looks on philosophically.
There is great detail of the table such as the pier mirror above a mantelpiece with a clock in front of it and part of a wall candelabra.
Behind the table is a large oval picture of a ballooning scene. The picture provided a charming look at bourgeois life in mid-19th century Austria.
