18th Century Spanish Altarpiece, Wallmounted Sculpture, Carved Gilwood
Located in Valladolid, ES
One of a kind Set of two pieces belonging to a monumental Baroque altarpiece made in the 18th century. These are two magnificent carvings of large dimensions, which together make a semicircular piece with a profuse decoration also of monumental proportions of plant forms. Decoration with elaborate carved rolls, which stand out from the general structure. It comes from a Spanish church that housed an imposing altarpiece made in the second half of the 18th century. The entire visible surface is gilded with original gold leaf, with imperceptible subsequent touch-ups. The back is reinforced, which makes the pieces very strong and heavy. In the photographs you can see the approach of its collectors: they placed it as a headboard, it looked impressive! But these exclusive pieces can be presented in many possible ways, either as part of the wall or as a work of art. Due to its enormous size, the configuration chosen for transport is "the buyer picks up the piece" but if, once awarded, you want to contract transport, we will provide it (we have a team of experts). Total measurements: 450 cm (width) x 160cm (height) x 25cm (depth) Measurements of each piece (2): 225cm (width) x 160cm (height) x 25cm (depth) It is a unique opportunity to acquire two exclusive pieces in the world of antiques.
