Heraldic coat of arms

Artist active in Northern Italy, 17th century

Heraldic coat of arms: shield quartered in the first and fourth black with the rampant lion,
to the second and to the third gold to the eagle


Carved, polychrome and gilded walnut wood, 88 x 55.5 x 4.5 cm


Heraldic coat of arms in carved, polychrome and gilded walnut wood.

Of great sculptural quality, it has the heraldic shield bearing the family arms, carved in the center of an elegantly moved structure and sculpted with seventeenth-century motifs, and further embellished by the skilful alternation of black lacquer and gilding.

This structure, ideally resting on a marbled base with a golden acanthus leaf, is supported: in the lower part by two angels with outstretched wings gently resting on triumphs of fruit, and in the upper part by a figure (perhaps linked to the family) looking towards the viewer,.
