This print showcases a remarkable Wall Bracket from the late 17th century, crafted by the French School. Made of intricately carved and gilded wood, this exquisite piece measures approximately 56.35 cm in height, 49.10 cm in width, and 26.35 cm in depth. The focal point of this stunning wall bracket is its beautifully carved decoration depicting Hercules and the Nemean lion. The level of detail and artistry displayed in this carving is truly awe-inspiring, showcasing the skill and craftsmanship of the artist. As a decorative furnishing, this wall bracket would have added an air of elegance to any interior space during the 17th century. Its ornate design features wooden figures that bring life to mythological scenes, creating a sense of grandeur and sophistication. The gilded finish adds a touch of opulence to this already magnificent piece, making it even more visually striking. The combination of intricate carving and delicate gold accents makes for a truly unique work of art. Now housed at the Cleveland Museum of Art in Ohio, USA, this Wall Bracket was generously bequeathed by Mrs. Severance A. Millikin as part of her legacy. It stands as a testament to the enduring beauty and artistic excellence that can be found within French woodcarving during the seventeenth century.
