Framed 18th Century Italian Gold Leaf Angel Head Wall Relief Sculpture
About the Item
Framed 18th century Italian gold leaf angel head 'putto' wall relief sculpture with burgundy velvet and adorned with rubies and garnets. There is a halo of rubies and garnets around the head and the angel 'putto' was sculpted from papier-mâché. It is mounted on the original burgundy velvet and frame. The frame is adorned with natural-cut garnets.
A Putto is a cherub figure frequently appearing in both mythological and religious paintings and sculpture, especially of the Renaissance and Baroque periods. Papier-mâché became very popular in Italy in both periods and is especially well-known in Puglia which is famous for the papier-mâché art. The angel face was created from gold leaf papier-mâché which signifies that it was an important piece.
The piece is put together by Jean O'Reilly Barlow, the artist and creative director of Interi. The date of manufacture reflects when she preserved and transformed the piece and the period shows that the framed Italian papier-mâché putto in velvet is originally 18th century.
Together, the piece creates a historically significant yet contemporary work to grace any wall or space.
