Floor mirror. Jugendstil

Floor mirror. Jugendstil

Floor-standing mirror-console Jugendstil, early 20th century Germany. Alpha and Omega of spiritual and organic synthesis. This is exactly how this theme develops from the stylized A at the base of the console to the Omega at the top of the mirror. The shaped frame of the mirror, sprouting flowers, flows into the flanking cruciferous buds and ends with three colors in an angelic takeoff. Symbolic references to Christianity reflect the special status and role of man. He is the connecting rod of physical and spiritual beauty. He is a measure of time and a living organic embodiment of the spirit. Here in the mirror it becomes the connecting main element in the sacred primer of the universe.
