A large-format piece of furniture that warms the room thanks to the natural tones of the wood.

Subject and Style: The work is crafted entirely using the marquetry technique. At the center is a dynamic animal battle scene set against a natural landscape: a deer is attacked by a bear and dogs, with a castle in the background. The artisan's mastery is evident in the use of different wood species to create nuance, depth, and movement without the use of paint. The entire piece is framed by a wide outer band of burl wood, lending a refined touch.

Material and Finish: Solid wood frame covered with fine wood veneers of various shades (likely walnut, maple, cherry, burl wood). The surface is polished, enhancing the natural grain of the material.
