Ancient Plaque Deposition of Christ

NOT AVAILABLE

Plaque Entombment of Christ - Genoa - 1800s - Silvered and worked metal.

Plaque depicting the Deposition of Christ in silvered and worked metal.

Genoa, 19th Century.

The scene takes place within a composition that recalls the ancient temple frames, with a grotesque cymatium, lateral pilasters and an underlying scroll that reads "Pietas adomnia".

The aesthetics refer to the work of Maestro Galeazzo Mondella, a Renaissance goldsmith known as "Il Moderno".

Perfect condition, some wear and patina on the metal, but no breaks.
