About the Item

A plaster relief sculpture by Russian American artist George Aarons (1896-1980). This sculpture by George Aarons, titled Peace - Swords to Ploughshares, depicts a figure engaged in the act of transformation, symbolizing the conversion of instruments of war into tools for peaceful productivity. The figure, rendered in a minimalist and abstract style, is shown holding a hammer, with the dynamic lines suggesting the reshaping of metal, possibly a sword, into a ploughshare. The presence of a circular form, resembling the sun or moon, adds a celestial or timeless element, highlighting the universal and enduring aspiration for peace. The framing in wood complements the artwork, grounding its message in a natural, earthy aesthetic. Dimensions: 3.75"h x 7.5"w (relief) 7"h x 10.5"w (frames) Condition: Good, small scuffs and marks to surface consistent with age. Ready to hang.
