Chiseled bronze with a light brown patina.
This panel made by Barbedienne (signature engraved with a burin) represents one of the panels made by the sculptor Della Robbia as an ornament for a cantoria or cantor's gallery located in the Cathedral of Santa Maria del Fiore in Florence.
For the record, Donatello and Della Robbia each created a cantoria for the same location in the cathedral, they are now located opposite each other. This panel, like the other panels of the cantoria, represents a choir of children and adults, and on each panel the choir uses only the same instrument (cimbals, trumpets, voices, etc.). For our panel, they are tambourines.
The large size of this bronze panel restores the statuary scale of the original model.
