Beautiful decorative relief wall mask depicting the majestic face of the Artemision God (often identified as Zeus or Poseidon), one of the greatest masterpieces of ancient Greek bronze sculpture (Severe Style, circa 460 BCE).
This high-quality modern replica, dating from the late 20th century (circa 1980-1990), perfectly captures the iconic details of the original work: the long beard sculpted with precision, the characteristic locks of hair and the god's solemn expression.
The finish features a stunning patina imitating oxidized ancient bronze, with subtle shades of verdigris and black, offering a striking visual rendering very close to a true foundry bronze.
Dimensions: 31cm × 17cm
Weight: 1.1 kilos

Superbe masque mural décoratif en relief représentant le visage majestueux du Dieu de l'Artémision (fréquemment identifié comme Zeus ou Poséidon), l'un des plus grands chefs-d'œuvre de la sculpture grecque antique en bronze 
(Style Sévère, vers 460 av. J.-C.).
Cette réplique moderne de haute qualité, datant de la fin du XXe siècle (circa 1980-1990), capture à la perfection les détails iconiques de l'œuvre originale : la longue barbe sculptée avec précision, les boucles de cheveux caractéristiques et l'expression solennelle du dieu.

La finition présente une magnifique patine imitant le bronze antique oxydé, avec des nuances subtiles de vert-de-gris et de noir, offrant un rendu visuel saisissant très proche d'un véritable bronze de fonderie.
