This pair of brass wall plates is a striking representation of the late 19th to early 20th century artistic narrative through metalwork. Measuring 19.5 x 29.5 cm, they depict dynamic scenes rendered in high relief. The first plate brings to life an aristocratic indoor scene, full of movement and intricate detail, suggesting a moment of entertainment or celebration. The second plate contrasts this with a depiction of an intense duel, figures locked in combat, suggesting a scene from a historical tale or a moment captured from the pages of chivalric romance. The depth of the reliefs emphasizes the dramatic intensity of each scene. Framed with richly patterned borders that complement the scenes within, these plates are a distinct addition to any collection, marrying the art of storytelling with skilled craftsmanship.
