Description from the seller

This decorative ornament features a golden cornice made of composite material, crafted with a taste clearly inspired by Italian Baroque, where curved forms, lush reliefs, and a sense of movement characterize that style. The gilded surface emphasizes the volumes and lends a solemn and theatrical air, typical of mid-20th-century ornamental pieces that reinterpret Baroque splendor with a lighter, more decorative touch.

In the center, a finely illustrated image, taken from a page of a Book of Hours, is integrated, depicting the Adoration of the Magi before the Child Jesus. The scene shows Mary holding the Child, surrounded by the Magi who bow to offer their gifts, all framed by an ambiance that blends the sacred with everyday details typical of the medieval and Renaissance miniature tradition.

The ensemble combines the ornamental richness of the frame with the spiritual delicacy of the image, creating a piece that conveys devotion, history, and a refined aesthetic sense.
