# Art Nouveau bedroom furnishings: three-leaf screen [View the canonical artwork record]() ## Artwork - Artist: [SERRURIER-BOVY, Gustave]() - Date: 1851-1900 - Technique: Waxed mahogany, glass, 160 x 180 x 3 cm ## Commentary This screen is part of the bedroom furnishings whose different elements \(bed, wardrobe, psyche, dressing table\) are also kept at the Musée d'Orsay, where the bedroom is now fully reconstructed. To fill the lower part of the screen, there were probably two possibilities at the choice of the customer: a fabric in accordance with that of the upholstery of the bed and the walls or simple white glazing. A contemporary critic wrote: "We must make a special place for the beautiful screen, a true work of art \(...\) The panels are stretched with fabrics at their lower part, while the top is made up of glass screens in which a flight of butterflies and dragonflies is embedded in the leads: agates, which work wonders here." ## Related artworks - [Armchair "chambre d'artisan"]() - [Art Nouveau bedroom furnishings: bed]() - [Art Nouveau bedroom furnishings: dressing table]() - [Art Nouveau bedroom furnishings: two-piece wardrobe]() - [Art Nouveau ensemble]() - [Cabinet-vitrine]() - [Cue stick holder for snooker]() - [Villa l'Aube: exterior]() - [Villa l'Aube: interior]() ## Attribution [Web Gallery of Art]()
