VIRGINIA ROTHSCHILD, BAROQUE FRAMES.
Each piece a masterpiece..."The love for art, and creation of it, is what brings me the must joy in my daily
routine. After looking at my paintings I realized that I had to find frames to match. My early life, surrounded by churches all over Mexico, were visited by my father and I. As a Civil Engineer he had the patience to explain to me the origins of the architecture
and the intricate designs on the altars. The hand carved wood was then gold leafed by
very skilled men. The churigueresque churches intrigued me and were a very profound
influence in my appreciation of art. Taught by a nun to gold leaf at an early age gave me inspiration to develop other manual
skills such as making my own models in clay."
"I design each frame to fit a particular subject, whether it is a painting or a mirror. Each of
these pieces is created with a perfectionists dedication making each frame unique, exquisite, one
of a kind pieces of art. All the material in creating these masterpieces, plus the construction,
insure centuries of its existence and retention of its beauty."
In visits to most of the major museums of the world we have never seen the equal of
these frames. The owner of these one of a kind works of art can rest assured they
will not see a copy anywhere. They cannot be counterfeited and any copies are easily
identified. You can purchase one of these unique pieces with a clear mind that you, and
only you, possess an exclusive one-of-a-kind work of art.
In the fabrication of the frame, construction techniques, and all materials, are the finest
available. A perfectionists conscience was employed throughout. To use a jewelry term "the work is flawless".
This work would be confortable hanging in the Academia or the Uffizi, a perfect fit
among the company of the giants of art.
Virginia Rothschild's frames are the very antithesis of modern art. The art of the masters
and this work, will survived for centuries to come. Your investment will yield enjoyment
for the moment and a compound increase in value for the future.
Just as beautiful music brings solace to the soul, Virginia Rothschild's frames bring
serenity to the viewer.
Looking at these works of art is close to a religious experience. They bring an epiphany
of spirit as you realize the inspiration the artist had in creating them. Their power is
palpable.
