This Polyester resin sculpture representing a bird, in the colors yellow and black

Pair of 18th-century architectural fragments
Located in Rio De Janeiro, BR
This pair of 18th-century architectural fragments captures the elegance and craftsmanship of colonial-era decorative art. Originally part of a larger structure, these wooden fragments showcase intricate carvings, likely once embellishing a grand interior space with their distinctive style.
