This elegant, 19th-century door panel evokes life in a traditional courtyard home, where the openwork lattice design allowed light and air to flow into the inner rooms while maintaining privacy for its occupants. Creating lattice was a geometric puzzle; this elaborate quadrilobe pattern was made by the precise interlocking of long and short pieces of carved wood. The wax-finished, knotted fir panel is finished with finely carved and pierced top panels of archaistic dragons forming geometric scrollwork around a central flaming pearl.
Some restoration to the top of the frame.
