Created entirely within the Methinks studio by Splendidus, this 16" x 16" panel features intricate etched metal detailing that provides a deep, tactile topography.
​The piece is a masterclass in faux-patina. Splendidus has layered pigments to create a "Living Verdigris" effect—shadows of charcoal, bursts of oxidized copper, and hints of clay red. Despite its robust, industrial appearance, the piece is surprisingly lightweight, allowing for effortless installation while maintaining the visual weight of a solid cast-metal artifact.

​Why We Love It
​This piece offers the best of both worlds: the high-impact look of a heavy, centuries-old metal relief and the practical ease of a modern art piece. It hangs beautifully as a singular statement or can be grouped for a larger installation. The etching ensures that as your room's lighting changes throughout the day, different details in the metal and paint are revealed. See less
