- Lot Description
James Todd Portland Looking Glass Manufactory (Portland Maine, 1820 - 1866), circa 1825. A complimenting pair of Federal giltwood and eglomise tabernacle mirrors, one diminutive in size, and both having a molded cornice with eight spherules over the rectangular reverse painted panel, each depicting a different view of the same lake side cottage and landscape, possibly by the hand of Charles Codman (American, 1800-42), above the rectangular mirror plate flanked to each side by a spiral molding. One mirror retains traces of the original label. Approximate height of smaller mirror 21.25". width 13.75", depth 2.75". Approximate height of larger mirror, width, depth. Provenance: From the Estate of Dr. Woody Cobbs and Mrs. Honor Cobbs, Atlanta, Georgia. Note: Trained in Boston, James Todd came to Portland in 1820 and established his looking glass manufactory on Exchange Street. He operated the business until 1866, when it was destroyed by the Portland fire. Todd's mirrors often include painted scenes made by local artisans and a number of people believe Charles Codman did some of Todd’s reverse paintings on glass, as they were friends and contemporaries.Prior to bidding, please consult the additional photos provided and ask all pertinent questions (i.e. condition, size, etc.).
