Italian 19th Century White Carrara Marble Decorative Wall Plaque of a Pope

About the Item

A striking and finely detailed Italian 19th century white Carrara marble decorative wall plaque of a pope. The plaque, sculpted out of one solid piece of white Carrara marble, depicts a Pope at the center dressed in his traditional cassock with a cross around his neck and intricately sculpted details throughout his garment. He holds the Bible in his left hand with his finger marking a page while gesturing with his right hand. The plaque displays a richly sculpted wrap around berried laurel wreath at the border and a charming finely detailed tied ribbon below.
