Pair of Grand Tour Gilt Bronze circular shaped plaques of Roman Gladiators

Description

A Fantastic Pair of 19th C. French Gilt Bronze Roman Solider Plaques of gladiators with Faux Marble Boarders. Each frame is beautifully hand-carved and the bronze medallions are in high-relief conveying Roman soldiers wearing helmets with long locks of hair. The interior boarder of each plaque is hand-painted with faux marble decoration. The finest 24K gilt decoration was used to adorn these plaques and create a beautiful matted finish which is very difficult to master over bronze. Each medallion is cast in bronze, as well as repousse and hand-chased. These gorgeous large plaques can be hung in any decor and create a fantastic look to all interiors. The finest details are all hand-done throughout demonstrating the wonderful craftsmanship to create these. France, Circa: 1890
