FREGIO SCULTOREO ANTICO.


Provenienza: Palazzo Nobiliare, Gallipoli (LE)
Materiale: Legno di noce massello ad alta densità
Descrizione Tecnica e Artistica
Questo raro elemento scultoreo rappresenta una testimonianza d'eccellenza dell'ebanisteria meridionale di fine Settecento. Al centro della composizione spicca il volto di un putto ad altorilievo, caratterizzato da un'espressione fiera e quasi vigile, lontano dalla tipica sdolcinatezza dei cherubini religiosi.
La struttura è un trionfo di linee architettoniche:
Il Cimiero: Una foglia d’acanto stilizzata che si apre a ventaglio, simbolo di gloria e rigenerazione.
Le Volute: I fianchi sono sorretti da doppie volute contrapposte che creano un dinamismo tipico del Barocco maturo, ma già proiettato verso la rigidezza neoclassica.
La Patina: Il legno presenta una brunitura naturale profonda, segno di una conservazione in ambienti asciutti e di una lucidatura a cera stratificata nei secoli.
Perché è un pezzo speciale
A differenza dei comuni fregi seriali dell'800, questo manufatto mostra i segni della sgorbiatura manuale (visibile nei sottosquadri del volto e delle foglie). La sua rarità risiede nell'equilibrio tra la funzione decorativa e quella simbolica: non è solo un ornamento, ma un "guardiano" domestico destinato a un ambiente di alta rappresentanza.
