Large Empire-style Biscuit Medallion—an Allegory Of The Night, In A Gilded Wooden Frame

A large medallion or large biscuit miniature set in a wood frame gilded with gold leaf. It depicts a winged figure of Fame carrying a sleeping child. The presence of an owl reveals its meaning: it is an allegory of Night. An Empire-style piece from the Restoration period, set in a beautiful square frame with rounded corners, gilded with gold leaf.

A beautiful, refined, and large-scale decorative piece, the ideal complement to an early 19th-century interior.

In very good condition.
