AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Antique polychromed siderolith, model 4328 Johann Maresch.
A rare wall plaque in high relief (haut-relief)
Made from fine unglazed terracotta pottery (siderolith - terralith)
'cold'-painted with a matte lacquer finish. The painting has a characteristic aged patina.
This impressive museum-grade collectible dates from the period around 1890-1910 (historicism / early Jewish Art Nouveau).
Made in the famous studio of Johann Maresch (JM) in Aussig an der Elbe (Bohemia / Austria-Hungary)
Jeffrey's - Evans & Associates.
The fabulous depth, the highly realistic wood grain of the window, and the very detailed humorous facial expressions are iconic of Maresch's work.
The three-dimensional scene shows a man with a top hat and a woman in historical dress leaning outward through an open window (hatch).
With the authentic indented factory mark JM (Johann Maresch) and the official catalog number 4328.
A heavy (6 kg) and substantial-quality piece.
With the original hanging rail (note! This has a piece broken off in the past) see photo
In generally good antique condition, with signs of aging that contribute to its authentic appearance.
