A beautiful, decorative wrought iron window grill in Wiener Secessionist style and still retaining much of its original paint/patina. The combination of repetitious squared negative space and stylized floral design was favored by Wiener Werkstatte artisans, particularly Josef Hoffmann. Unsigned. Very good paint, solid and without damage, with old gray paint that has flaked off in few minor places. Attachment pieces are located on all sides for easy wall installation. Dimensions: 27.36”(H) x 25”(W). Approx. 20lbs.
Any additional attribution information or suggestions would be most welcome.
