Lime wood high relief - A. Dal Santo - Italy 1940s

Splendid high relief in lime wood depicting a battle in which the Roman army is deployed and, cheered by the crowd, is gaining the upper hand against the opposing army which instead is retreating, leaving dead and wounded on the field. In the background there are city walls and some architecture. The work was sculpted by Antonio Dal Santo, known as 'il Barbaro', an artist from Vicenza born at the end of the 19th century, who grew up as a carver at Dalla Vecchia's atelier, a renowned sacred art workshop. The high relief presents great dynamism and richness of detail, done with great skill and attention. The frame that completes it is in ebonized durmast wood, engraved with a floral motif.

Ho acquistato, online, due gioielli. Lo Staff di Passione Antiqua è disponibile, gentile e professionale. Spedizione coerente con i tempi del corriere. I due gioielli sono meravigliosi, molto più che le foto dal loro sito. Per quanto mi riguarda, un'esperienza molto positiva.

Gentile Vittorio, la ringraziamo di cuore per le splendide parole e per aver condiviso la sua esperienza con noi. Sapere che i gioielli hanno superato le aspettative e che il nostro servizio è stato all’altezza è per noi motivo di grande soddisfazione. Saremo lieti di accoglierla nuovamente, online o in negozio, per continuare a condividere la passione per i gioielli antichi. Un cordiale saluto, Il Team di Passione Antiqua
