About the Item
Antique and uniquely hand carved work of art, in deep relief.
Anyone who is capable of creating such a unique, geometric and expressive face of Ludwig van Beethoven out of an oakwooden plaque and of this size, in our view, is a true artist. The straight and geometric lines, his powerful facial expression, the sheer depth of this sculpture and the beautifully carved hair of this particular Beethoven 'mask' really make this piece a marvel to own and look at. Worldfamous composer Van Beethoven often had a very strict way of looking (not the kindest person perhaps), but we feel that the artist whom created this unique plaque even gave this Beethoven a somewhat 'mad' look and feel. We believe this was done, because of the phrase we have all come to know as 'It is a fine line between genius and insanity'. With the woodtype of this oval plaque being oakwood it made creating this stylish work of art even more difficult and thanks to its age this piece has also 'grown' a wonderful patina. No matter where you decide to place or wall-mount this unique, classical music related antique, it will never fail to impress. It will also make a great gift for a loved one who is 'mad about' art in general and Ludwig Van Beethoven in particular.
