1875s Pair of Carved and Polychrome Wood Mmodels, Arab-Andalusian Style.

About the Item

Set of two reliefs in carved and polychrome wood that reproduce in great detail architectural elements of Arab-Andalusian art. Each piece evokes the characteristic decoration of the Alhambra in Granada, with horseshoe arches, ornamental filigree and Arabic calligraphy. The vivid colors in one piece contrast with the monochromatic finish of the other, highlighting the detail of the craftsmanship. Both reliefs are framed with carved moldings that complement the visual richness of the works. Probably made in the mid-20th century, this set is ideal for collectors or as decorative elements that add a historical and cultural touch to any space. They represent a unique combination of tradition and craftsmanship.
