The figurative inner scene is painted on a rectangular alabaster slab and housed in a wonderful giltbronze frame resting on casted arrow feet. This is a single section of a bigger surtout de table. You can now use it as a decorative centrepiece on a table or on a console or turn it into a wall decoration. The characters enjoy a rich banquet in an elaborate interior, the room renderings of grandiose ancient Roman architecture, detailed mosaic floors with Medusa head and an exotic leopard fur leaning on it, Roman frescoes, antiques furniture and sculptures and floral festoons are eye-catching with their vibrant colors. Extremely rich in details, this genre scene and history painting concentrates on antique Roman subjects and architectural features of ancient sites in the style of Pompei. The realistic Neo-Pompeian scenes of Ancient Roman day life and events were popular subjects in the Late-Victorian period all-over Europe, as exemplified by the popularity of Sir Lawrence Alma-Tadema. Our painting recalls the style of the Italian painters Luigi Bazzani and Ettore Forti. This decorative piece will enhance any room with its classical beauty, convenient size and good scale piece. Very good overall condition, stable, bright and saturated colors, desirable patina throughout. Housed in an ormolu frame. Measures: H. 44, W. 60, D. 5 cm. See less
