Large Antique Painted Ceramic Equestrian Plaque

About the Item

Large antique painted ceramic equestrian plaque French, 19th Century Plaque: Height 20cm, width 66cm Frame: Height 41cm, width 86cm, depth 6cm This charming ceramic plaque is significantly large for works of this type, delicately painted with six horses in a naturalistic style. Great attention to detail has been paid to the expressions of the horses and the colours of their coats, which shine with delicately added highlights and shadows. The horses are set against a sky backdrop, and lean over the low hedge in the foreground of the composition. The plaque is set within an ebony and parcel gilt frame and is indistinctly marked on the reverse in multiple places, including ’19.7’ and ‘HL’. With horses long famed for symbolising nobility and beauty, this refined porcelain plaque wows with its sensitive equestrian subject and would be an excellent piece in both a traditional as well as a contemporary interior.
