The frames appear to be carved softwood with a gessoed and gilded surface, showing period-appropriate wear to the raised ornament. Each panel contains a tapestry-style woven landscape inset: one scene with a prominent tree and figures near water, the other with a similar pastoral riverside composition, both in muted greens, blues, and ochres. The asymmetrical rococo vocabulary (scrolling shoulders, shell base, and leafy crest) and the use of woven scenic inserts are consistent with Belle Époque decorative wall treatments intended to evoke 18th-century French boiserie and panneau décor.
