Antique Neo-classical Style Plaster Plaque in Frame
About the Item
Antique neo-classical style plaster plaque mounted in a frame. This decorative piece, at nearly 120 years old, has kept the details of its eye-catching classical scene. Unlike others of its likeness, this plaque has a painted timber frame and is mounted onto a steel stand. It could be displayed inside a home ready for visitors to admire. It depicts a mythical creature, with sea lion like features, in cloud-like waves, while a woman reaches down to another, and a third character hides away. A baby sits on top of the waves in awe of its sea lion friend carrying them on a journey across the waves.

Neo Classical Plaster Italian Sculpture of a Hand
Located in Catania, Sicilia
This is a Neoclassical Revival Italian plaster sculpture depicting a realistically rendered hand, signed and dated Rome, 25 Agosto 1857. The piece is a fine example of mid-19th century academic craftsmanship, capturing the elegance and anatomical precision characteristic of the Neoclassical style, which was heavily influenced by ancient Roman and Greek art.
The hand is sculpted with incredible attention to detail from the gentle curvature of the fingers to the subtle articulation of the knuckles and fingernails. The plaster surface has a softly textured, matte finish, evoking the look of marble and lending the piece a timeless, classical feel.
This sculpture was intended as a study model or academic cast, often used in art schools or ateliers of the time to teach drawing and sculpting from classical forms. The handwritten inscription of the date and location adds a personal and historical touch, anchoring it to a specific moment in 19th-century Rome —a hub of Neoclassical art and study during that period.
It’s both a decorative object and a historical artifact, perfect for collectors of classical art, academic studies, or antique plaster casts.
