Gallic King Vercingetorix Repoussé in Patinated Copper 19th Century
-
Description
Gallic King Vercingetorix Neoclassical Repoussé in Patinated Copper 19th Century.
A wonderful neoclassical (wall) repoussé in patinated copper. Also great as a centerpiece or bas relief plaque on your table or cabinet. Elegant and stylish.
Vercingetorix was a Gallic king and chieftain of the Arverni tribe who united the Gauls in a failed revolt against Roman forces during the last phase of Julius Caesar's Gallic Wars. After surrendering to Caesar and spending almost six years in prison, he was executed in Rome.
Great work, very tactile and shows a nice patina.
Please note we have a similar piece in our collection that depicts Julius Caesar - as can be seen on the photos. They make a wonderful pair.
