17th-Century French Architectural Fragment – Cherubic Relief
Salvaged from the demolition of a 17th-century French church in the early 1900s, this architectural fragment once graced a grand frieze. Carved in plaster, it features a serene cherubic face framed by a starburst motif, a design echoing the artistry of Baroque ecclesiastical interiors. Part of a distinguished estate collection, the piece has been carefully stabilized and its edges rounded for wall display. At nearly 400 years old, its weathered surface and time-softened contours are a testament to centuries of history. Unsigned, perfectly imperfect, and ready to bring a touch of French heritage to your home.
