Looking Glass 1810 - 1820

"Looking Glass" is a decorated mirror made by John Doggett, a prominent American furniture maker. It is a fine example of American Federal-style furniture from the early 19th century. The mirror's elaborate frame is adorned with intricate carvings and is likely made from wood and gilded with gold leaf. The central motif features a winged figure, possibly a muse, holding a laurel wreath, highlighting a popular theme in classical art. The mirror is a testament to the craftsmanship of Doggett's work and the enduring appeal of Federal-style design.
