The large central piece on one picture depicts the virtue of temperantia (temperance).
And an oval piece shows an antique fight scene.
Two of the circular medallions bear the portraits of kings; one referring to the English King Henry I (c. 1068 – 1 December 1135), also known as Henry Beauclerc, who was King of England from 1100 to his death in 1135.
The presentation of these gilded intaglio reliefs on glass with under-painting of black and over a marble affect background, in these lovely large carved and painted wooden frames is a vintage arrangement.
The old-style gilding on the vintage or possibly antique intaglios make the pictures so beautiful and regal.
