EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases one of a series of four Doccia moulded oval plaques from the mid-18th century. Crafted with exquisite porcelain, these plaques are a testament to the skill and artistry of the Italian School during this period. The particular plaque depicted in this image is part of a private collection and measures between 47.9cm and 49.5cm. The intricate design on the plaque tells a mythological tale, featuring elements such as chastity, femininity, and lunar symbolism. A female figure can be seen kneeling in relief against an ornate white background within a gilt frame. She represents Diana, the goddess associated with chastity and the moon in Roman mythology. Adding to its decorative allure, there is also a male figure portrayed alongside Diana – possibly alluding to another myth or symbolic representation within Rococo aesthetics. The meticulous moulding technique employed by Doccia artisans brings out every delicate detail on this ceramic masterpiece. With its ornamental beauty and rich mythological references, this Doccia oval plaque serves as both an artistic treasure and historical artifact from 18th-century Italy. Its presence adds elegance to any space it graces while offering viewers an intriguing glimpse into ancient tales that continue to captivate our imagination today.
