Bronze Casket With 17th-century High-relief Scenes
Oval box with a bronze lid featuring a brown patina. It rests on four legs decorated with acanthus leaves and topped with caryatids. This box is adorned on all sides with scenes in high relief, including a village festival, a tavern scene, and horsemen resting—particularly on the lid, where the oval medallion depicts horsemen resting, reminiscent of the paintings of Philips Wouwerman, among others!
These high-relief decorations are very lively; the chiseling is extremely precise, allowing one to make out even the smallest details all the way into the background.
