About the Item

This imposing monumental wall sculpture, hand-forged in Spain during the early 20th century, stands as a true masterpiece of artisanal ironwork. It depicts a celestial angel figure in a reclining pose, serenely playing a lute, capturing a frozen moment of celestial harmony. The piece is executed with virtuoso blacksmithing techniques, transforming unyielding ferrous metal into fluid, classical drapery and intricately detailed feathered wings that suggest movement. The angel’s face bears a tranquil, contemplative expression characteristic of the Renaissance Revival aesthetic popular in Spanish monumental arts of the era. The substantial iron construction retains a deep, natural oxidized patina that enhances its historical character and profound visual depth. Designed specifically for significant architectural integration, the reverse is engineered with two heavy-duty iron brackets, allowing for secure mounting onto a wall. It is a striking statement piece combining spiritual symbolism with the timeless elegance of monumental Spanish craftsmanship.
