Crown or Crest, Pinewood, 17th Century

About the Item

Top or top made of pine wood carved in color with a human bust in the center, located by grabbing two scrolls and thus creating an axis of symmetry for the elaborate composition presented by the piece, based on flowers, plant motifs, architectural details, etc. of some classicist influence and much movement and depth. The one who presents the back without working in detail, suggests the possibility that this relief has been part, in origin, of an important altarpiece given the size of the piece and the quality of it. Both the movement and the decorative elements of the composition link the work with the Spanish Baroque." Size: 117 x 65 x 45 cms.

  • Pair of Solomonic Columns, Pinewood, 17th Century
    Located in Madrid, ES
    Pair of columns of carved pine wood that present the twisted shaft in a helical way (Solomonic) and decorated with interlocks of birds, scrolls, leaves, fruits and birds intermingled and are topped by two Corinthian capitals (with the two levels of leaves under the scrolls more similar to those of oak than to acanthus). Although it was an element used in architecture before, the Solomon column is a more known and habitual piece in the Baroque, especially since its use by Bernini in the canopy of St. Peter's Vatican (completed in 1633). He soon arrived in Spain, being used in Andalusia for the first time circa 1639 and in Madrid in 1636, spreading throughout the peninsula and colonial territories since then. Normally, they were decorated with branches and grape clusters in slight relief. Although the presence of birds in this type of elements is not the most common, they can be seen in pieces such as the Solomonic column...
