Pair Of Oval Wall Medallions In Carved And Gilded Wood

Pair of oval-shaped wall medallions, in carved and gilded wood, decorated with galant scenes in the taste of the 18th century.

Each composition depicts young couples in a country landscape, inspired by the world of Watteau or Fragonard: delicate attitudes, refined costumes and a pastoral atmosphere imbued with gentleness.

Subtle coloring and fine drawing lend the ensemble a certain decorative charm.

The richly carved frames are topped with drooping ribbon bows, typical of the Louis XVI style, and embellished with a beaded frieze.

Gilding brings elegance and luminosity to the ensemble.

Very decorative, these medallions will find their perfect place in a classic or eclectic interior.
