CoadeCoade Stone Decorative Keystone Male Head in Classical Style (18th c)
About the Item
This keystone featuring a male head is a reproduction based on an original 18th-century Coade keystone.
The original keystone was purportedly inspired by the character of Harpagon from the play "The Miser," a comedic work in five acts written by the French playwright Molière. First performed in 1668, the play was loosely based on the Latin comedy "Aulularia" by Plautus. It was subsequently adapted by Thomas Shadwell in 1672 and Henry Fielding in 1732.
The sculptors at the Coade Manufactory likely drew inspiration from the contemporary adaptations of the play, using them as a reference to create the keystone depicted in the promotional materials of that time.
Dimensions: 25 x 23 x 8cm
