About the Item

This hand crafted cork work shows a romantic scene of an ancient castle in a charming diorama. The castle is perched atop a promontory overlooking a river, complete with forested terrain and a tiny swan. The artist's intricate cutting and piercing of the cork showcase their exceptional craftsmanship. The cream-colored mat beautifully complements the soft colors of the cork. The cork work is mid-19th century, and the frame and mat are 20th century. This cork work is a testament to the enduring appeal of English castles, dating back to the Norman invasion of 1066. Dimensions: 23" wide x 19" height x 2" deep Condition: The work is in excellent condition. The back with tape (see image). Price: $530 Background: The English word "castle" derives from the Latin castellum and refers to the private fortified residence of a lord or noble. The presence of castles in Britain and Ireland dates primarily from the Norman invasion of 1066. Before the arrival of the Normans, the Anglo-Saxons had built burhs, fortified structures with their origins in 9th-century Wessex.
