Note du spécialiste

The distinctive rosettes of the frame of this toilet mirror are a particular leitmotif of the Tula workshops, and feature on a number of pieces supplied to Empress Catherine the Great and other members of the Imperial family (see A. Cheneviere, Russian Furniture: The Golden Age 1780-1840, London, 1988, pp. 248-254).
