"Paperolles And Relic Of Saint Anthony"
Interesting paperolles with a relic of Saint Anthony and medallion of the Virgin Mary from the late 18th century. Composition with a central medallion embellished with a crown in the upper part and in the lower part of a relic bearing the inscription: St Antoine (one of the best known and most venerated saints in the world). Decorations around the medallion of a seedling of flowers, rolled paper ribbons decorated with multicolored metallic spangles in imitation of precious stones. The oval medallion is in biscuit enhanced with cold polychromy, it represents the Immaculate Conception in low relief, an inscription on the edge that I could not decipher. The set is fixed on a dark brown silk background and protected by a slightly bluish vintage glass. Original gilded wooden frame, as well as the gouache paper on the back. Later addition of strips of beige paper to insulate against dust. Dimensions at sight: 12.2 cm X 13.7 cm. Note: good condition for this religious work. Delivery: €10 for mainland France, I take great care in packaging the objects, however I cannot guarantee the breakage of the glass given the fragility of this object, thank you for your understanding.
