Very good condition. Piece made for the fitting room of the Princess de la Tour d'Auvergne in the castle of Grosbois. In 1920, Princess Marguerite de Wagram ordered from Eugène Printz a complete dining room set, which was presented at the Salon des Artistes Décorateurs that same year. The sister of the Princess of Wagram, Princess Elisabeth de la Tour d'Auvergne, who was refurbishing her apartments at the Château de Grosbois, entrusted her with the furnishing of several rooms, the entrance, the large and small salons, her boudoir or fitting room and the bedroom. Some of these works were presented at the Salon des Artistes Décorateurs in 1930 and 1931, and this mirror is part of this original commission. The castle was sold in 1962 to the Equestrian Society by the heirs of the Princess, who kept nothing of Eugène Printz's work.
