[QUOTE="Oliver277, post: 829630, member: 11565"]Hello I found this beautiful hidden mirror with a sculpted wooden frame and a nice painting. The story I was told about this is following: It was in a convent and since nuns were forbidden to look at them in a mirror, it's a hidden mirror. I don't know if it's true. I dont know neither if all the parts come from the same era. I think the sculpted frame is older than the mirror and the painting. On the frame there's some old green and red paint and a bit of gold on the edges. Can you tell it's age? The painting looks old and maybe signed. However a part of signature looks worn off and the painting is dirty therefor it's not easy to give you info about that. My questions is : How old is it? 20th century or older? Who is the author of this painting? How much do you think it's worth? Thanks for your help[/QUOTE]
