About the Item

19th Century French Neoclassical Louis XVI Wall Decoration with Marble Inset and Carved Bacchus is an amazing work of the sculptor's art! Created from old-growth oak, it features incredible relief and three dimensionality, starting with the striking visage of Bacchus centered on the arched crown above. Egg dart trim emanates out from the bust of Bacchus and encircles the half-pediments on each corner, each of which is suitable for a small display surface. Immediately below the bust of Bacchus is a frieze carved with amazingly artistic foliates and fruit in bold relief. Under each corner post appears a two-tiered pilaster carved with overlapping Greek coin flanked by Ionic scrolls and finished below with two-tiered molding that spans the entire width, flaring out at the middle to create another small display surface at the center. In between, a luxuriously veined marble plaque is framed by fine molded detail for a splendidly opulent finishing touch. Circa 1870s Measures 28H x 57W x 5D
