A Pair of Vintage Gilt Framed Mirrored Pictures Depicting Rural Horse-Drawn Scenes - A pair of decorative wall mirrors featuring screen-printed graphics of rural nostalgic scenes. One mirror, titled Summer, depicts a pair of heavy horses pulling a traditional wooden horse-drawn caravan, or vardo, through a field of daisies. The second mirror, titled Autumn, shows a pair of heavy horses pulling a wagon laden with a hay rick, with poppies and wheat in the foreground. Both scenes include decorative gold-toned gothic-style lettering at the top centre identifying the season. The mirrors are housed in matching gilt-finished wooden or composite frames with a reeded profile. These items are consistent with late 20th-century British decorative trends celebrating traditional rural life and heavy horse heritage. No manufacturer marks or signatures are visible on the front of the mirrors.
