18th Century Italian 'Florence Fragment' Vase with Fossil Barnacle Clusters
Located in Dublin, Dalkey
18th century Italian vase mounted with a fossil barnacle cluster and sitting on a petrified wood and barnacle base. This fragment is from a church in Florence. It was found and saved from the historic flooding of the Arno River in 1966. The piece has been naturally distressed from the flood. There is still the original paint and silt left on the piece to uphold the integrity, craftmanship, and history of sculptural fragment. The Rococo vase has been preserved and transformed with the natural specimens - it sits on top of the piece and where the neck of the vase was broken off, it is replaced with barnacles to look as though it evolved together over time. The story and history of this piece and Interi's collection of Florence fragments...
