Neoclassical Gilt Terracotta Cherub Relief Panel, 19th Century

About the Item

This 19th-century Neoclassical relief in gilt terracotta captures a mythic scene inspired by Paradise. Drawing influence from Louis-Messidor-Lebon Petitot, the composition features a host of cherubim in dynamic movement, guarding Eden after the expulsion of Adam and Eve. The rich texture and depth evoke classical bas-relief sculptures, and the elaborate polychrome ceramic treatment enhances its visual drama. Each cherub is modeled with expressive realism, making this piece both a decorative treasure and a profound symbol of innocence and divine protection. Set in an ornate, gilded frame, the artwork radiates opulence and charm.
