Get the Flash Player to see this video Two carved oak panels from a series of four.
Carved in high relief, imaginary grotesque characters appear in the midst of intertwined branches and foliage. One panel depicts a winged devil and a dragon, the other a centaur and a drunkard. The style, type of characters and proportions are reminiscent both of the Gothic (imaginary characters) and Renaissance (the décor of foliage). The use of work, especially dark wood, enhances this similarity.
Origin
19th century.
