Large Neoclassical Hand Carved White Marble Bas Relief / Plaque

About the Item

A monumental 19th century French hand carved white marble architectural bas-relief depicting two floating cherubs / cupids supporting a cartouche. The cartouche centered by a detailed oval gilt bronze plaque depicting figures in classical surroundings. Width: 78" Height: 39.5" Depth: 3" Bas-relief is a technique of carving where an image is projected in a shallow depth. If viewed from the side, the depth is distorted. However, when viewed from the front, the carved scene appears in three dimensions. This magnificent marble relief can be placed as an overmantle or overdoor piece as well as a decorative plaque elsewhere in a structure.
