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.
