Summary

[edit]
Description

I believe this is one exhibited at the 1862 International Exhibition in Kensington. From the Exhibition's catalogue:


Mr. Baylis was born at Cheltenham in 1836, and worked as an ordinary journeyman carver in various parts of the country till the year 1855, when he came to London, and signalized himself on his arrival by the execution of a mirror-frame in sycamore-wood, 8 feet high by 6 feet wide. Shortly after this he sent in a carved moulding to the competition at the Architectural Museum, for which he obtained a first prize, and high commendations from G-. G. Scott, Esq.,R.A., and A. J. B. Beresford-Hope, Esq. This decorated moulding we have given in our illustration, and above it is a jewel-casket in boxwood, one of his latest works, and for which he obtained a medal at the Exhibition, an honour which was the more creditable, as, from pressure of time, he was obliged to send it in a rough state of finish. Mr. Baylis works for several upholsterers in London, and his designs are characterized by great feeling for effect of light and shade, and boldness of execution.
