Pair of 19th Century Antique Bronze Panels, Head of Medusa
About the Item
Very ornate pair of 19th century antique cast bronze panels with the face of Medusa in the center. In the panel the bottom has a footed pedestal with a urn above and beautiful flowers and scroll work. Medusa in Greek mythology also called Gorgo, was one of the three Gorgons, Medusa is described as a human female with living snakes in place of her hair. Her appearance was so hideous that anyone who looked upon her was turned to stone. They have been polished years ago and mirrors added to the backs of both panels. They are in very good condition and nice pieces of architectural history.

- 19th Century Moorish Revival Bronze Architectural Model PanelLocated in Forney, TXA scarce antique Moorish architectural model thin bronze plaque from the late 19th century. This architectural model features a symmetrical design, the bronze frame having three sections, each panel with large traditional Moorish architecture rounded horseshoe - keyhole arch, flanked by xa pair of smaller pierced arches, finely detailed, decorated in intricate relief work, with light arabesque motif, Islamic calligraphy inscriptions, two large Star of David hexagrams, and notched saw toothed edge ornamentation. Provenance: From the highly curated contents of well regarded professional antique dealers, Ed and Jane Grant, who retired after four decades in the industry. The couple supplied both their Washington metro based antique shop, Grant Antiques, and their very fine quality Connecticut showcase, E.J. Grant Antiques, with domestic and imported pieces. World travelers who especially loved European antiques, sourced their merchandise during their frequent buying trips to Europe and Asia and included purchases originating in France, the British Isles, Italy, Spain, and beyond. "We have never been content with our established route. England is our first and favorite country and furniture. Then we discovered France. Then Holland and Belgium. On to Italy, Spain, then Scandinavia and later China. As always, bits and pieces from the U.S.," explains Jane in her memoirs of their 40 years as antiques dealers. Upon closing their antiques businesses (which were considered prominent sources for quality, diversity, and condition), the contents were carefully moved to a storage facility in Trumbull, CT awaiting the auction. It's always sad to see such a fine couple shut their doors after so many years in the industry, but we were honored to have the opportunity to find some truly beautiful pieces from such a respected and trusted source.
