"Baroque Coat Of Arms In Gilded Wood, Late 17th - Early 18th Century "
Superb carved and painted coat of arms, decorated with a rich baroque molding in gilded wood. The shield presents a character dressed in red on a background of red and gold pals, evoking the arms of the Crown of Aragon, accompanied by a chariot and stars on a red background. The Latin motto "Moderata Durant" moderate things last underlines a message of wisdom and balance. High quality decorative piece probably from a palisade or a convent, of Mediterranean origin (Spain or Italy). Beautiful old patina, noble traces of wear testifying to its authenticity. Perfect for a classic decoration, a gallery or a heraldic collection. Late 17th - early 18th century.
