LARGE FRENCH NEOCLASSICAL CARVED WHITE MARBLE RELIEF, 19TH CENTURY
-
Description
A stunning 19th-century French architectural bas-relief crafted from hand-carved white marble. It showcases two cherubs gracefully floating and supporting a cartouche, which is embellished with a detailed oval gilt bronze plaque depicting classical figures in a serene setting. The combination of marble and gilt bronze, along with the intricate detailing, creates a captivating and grand artistic piece. The craftsmanship and artistry of this sculpture reflect the mastery of the period and evoke a sense of historical elegance.
Bas-relief carving involves projecting an image in shallow depth, creating a three-dimensional scene when viewed from the front, despite appearing distorted when seen from the side. This splendid marble relief, with its captivating technique, can adorn spaces as an overmantle or overdoor piece, adding decorative allure. Its versatility allows placement as a striking plaque, enriching the architectural ambiance of various sections within a structure.
