This carved oak pediment from the 19th century is a majestic piece, testifying to the craftsmanship of the period. A finely carved doe's head sits at the center,
On either side of the pediment, at either end, are fantastical animal heads, imbued with mystery and symbolism. These mythological creatures, with their exaggerated, expressive features, add a fantastic, mystical dimension to the whole. The contrast between the natural gentleness of the doe and the boldness of the imaginary creatures lends this pediment an artistic depth, illustrating both the fascination with nature and the imagination of the 19th century.
Good antique condition. Please take a close look at the photos, there are an integral part of the description.
